Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the development results in the loss of family sized accommodation, having regard to the development plan
the effect of the development on the character of the area, including the Conservation Area, having particular regard to the balance and mix of housing and the living conditions of nearby residents with regard to noise and disturbance
the effect of the development on the living conditions of occupants of the property, with particular regard to daylight and outlook

What decided it

The development results in the loss of family-sized accommodation contrary to Policy H10 of the Liverpool Local Plan 2022, and there are no material considerations that outweigh this conflict with the development plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy H10, Policy H3, Policy H11, Policy H7, Policy HD1

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.
