Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the setting of the Pinkneys Green Conservation Area, the setting of the grade II listed building Mead House and the character and appearance of Lime Walk

What decided it

The proposal would preserve the settings of heritage assets and local character while making a modest contribution to housing land supply, and the tilted balance in favour of sustainable development therefore indicated permission should be granted.

The economic and social benefits of housing delivery and efficient land use outweighed any concerns, with no identifiable harm to heritage assets or other significantly adverse impacts, triggering the presumption in favour of sustainable development

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.
