Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the site is suitable for the proposed dwelling, bearing in mind development plan policies, the accessibility of the site, and the effect of the development on the landscape character of the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (the AONB)
The impact of the development on the integrity of the Fal and Helford Special Area of Conservation (the SAC)

What decided it

The existence of a lawfully commenced and still-capable-of-implementation planning permission for a dwelling on the site meant the proposal was an alternative design to an already-permitted development rather than new countryside development, removing the policy conflict.

Plan policies cited: Policy 2, Policy 3, Policy 7, Policy 12, Policy 21, Policy 22, Policy 23, Policy GP3, Policy HO3, Policy HO4, Policy HO8, Policy GP2, Policy LA1, Policy LA2

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.
