Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: The effect of the fencing on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it preserves or enhances the setting of the adjacent Little Marlow Conservation Area, and whether the hard-standing results in any adverse effect in terms of flooding
- Appeal B: Whether the proposed development would be permitted development under Class E of Part 6 of Schedule 2 of the GPDO; and if so, whether the proposed development would satisfy the prior approval matters including its siting, design, and external appearance
What decided it
Appeal A: The fencing caused demonstrable harm to character and appearance and insufficient evidence was provided to rule out adverse flooding effects, outweighing other considerations including the appellant's disability access needs. Appeal B: The absence of details demonstrating the building would be safe from flooding effects in a flood-susceptible area rendered the siting and design unacceptable for prior approval purposes.
