Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area
The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring property; particularly 243a and 247 Loughborough Road
The effect of the proposal on protected and priority species

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan on three independent grounds: harm to character and appearance, adverse impact on neighbouring living conditions, and unmitigated adverse effect on protected species.

Plan policies cited: Policy 10 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 1: Core Strategy and Local Policies, Policy 1 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies, Policy 38 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies

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.
