Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the unauthorised development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Watling Estate Conservation Area
the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers of No 248 Deansbrook Road, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The rear extension to the garage is not visible from public vantage points, matches the existing garage in design and materials, preserves the openness of the garden setting, and causes no loss of privacy to neighbours, thereby preserving the character and appearance of the conservation area.

Plan policies cited: Policy CDH01, Policy CDH08, Policy D3 of the London Plan 2021

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.

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.
