Inspector: Robbie K

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and the surrounding area
Whether the development would be tantamount to the creation of an independent dwelling; and if so, whether it would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to the quality of internal accommodation and car parking provision
The effect of the development on drainage

What decided it

The proposal would be tantamount to an independent dwelling that would not provide adequate living conditions for future residents due to insufficient internal floor area and inadequate car parking provision, combined with adverse impacts on character and appearance and drainage.

Plan policies cited: Policy Q14, Policy Q5, Policy Q8, Policy H5, Policy D6, Policy T6

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.
