Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to the location of the site within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to outlook from Antigua

What decided it

The proposed development would harm the character and appearance of the area and would not conserve or enhance the landscape and scenic beauty of the AONB due to its prominent siting at the settlement edge, increased height and bulk, and failure to respect the natural tapering of ridge heights following the land contours.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy 2, Policy 7, Policy 12, Policy 23, Policy LA1, Policy CV1, Policy GP1, Policy GP2, Policy HO8, Policy MD16

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
