LAND WEST OF PARK PLACE, BRADFORD ROAD, CORSHAM, WILTSHIRE, SN13 0NY

Without planning permission, operational development comprising the profiling of the land

Authority: Wiltshire Council
Appeal type: enforcement · Enforcement Notice
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: other · Other minor developments

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the site and the area
The effect of the development on flood risk on adjoining land
The effect of the development on the living conditions of nearby residents

What decided it

The development's unacceptable effect on flood risk on adjoining land, with insufficient information to demonstrate that mitigation measures would adequately address surface water run-off, meant the development conflicted with the development plan and no material considerations of sufficient weight justified determination otherwise.

Plan policies cited: WCS Policy CP51, WCS Policy CP52, WCS Policy CP57, WCS Policy CP67, CNP Policy E2, CNP Policy E3, CNP Policy E5

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.
