Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area including the impact upon the Non-Designated Heritage Assets (NDHA's) of Hatton Street Studios and the housing blocks of the Lilestone Estate

What decided it

The proposed roof extension and external alterations would result in an incongruous form of development that would irreversibly harm the architectural composition of the host building and its visual relationship with other properties within the terrace, conflicting with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh the identified harm.

Plan policies cited: Policy 38, Policy 39, Policy 40

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

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.
