Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the setting of the nearby listed building at Nos. 1-3 Daisy Lea, and the character and appearance of the area in general

What decided it

The harm to the setting and significance of the listed building at Nos. 1-3 Daisy Lea, assessed as less than substantial but given great weight under paragraph 205 of the Framework, outweighs the modest public benefits of delivering one additional dwelling.

The less than substantial harm to the setting of the listed building and character and appearance of the area, given great weight under paragraph 205 of the Framework, outweighs the modest public benefits of one additional dwelling and limited economic benefits, such that the proposal does not benefit from the presumption in favour of sustainable development despite the Council's housing delivery falling below 75% of requirement.

Framework references: 11, 205, 208

Plan policies cited: Policy LP24, Policy LP35, Housebuilders Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document (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.

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.
