Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupiers of No. 26 Netley Road with regard to light

What decided it

The combination of visual harm to character and appearance through incongruous curved roof forms and the significant adverse effect on neighbouring living conditions through loss of light to No. 26 Netley Road rendered the proposal contrary to the development plan with no material considerations to justify approval.

Plan policies cited: Policy CS15, Policy CS2, Policy CS13, Policy DM4, Policy DM29, Policy DM32

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.
