Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Thrapston Conservation Area
  • Whether or not acceptable living conditions would be provided for future occupiers of the proposed development, having particular regard to noise

What decided it

The prior grant of planning permission in April 2020 for two dwellings on the site established that the location was acceptable for residential development with appropriate mitigation measures, making the current proposal for a single larger dwelling a reasonable substitution that would preserve the conservation area's character.

Plan policies cited: Policy 2 of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy (July 2016), Policy 8 of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy, Policy EN2 of the East Northamptonshire Part 2 Local Plan, Policy EN11 of the East Northamptonshire Part 2 Local Plan
