Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would be ancillary to the existing dwelling or form a separate dwelling
If a separate dwelling, whether the proposal represents an appropriate location for housing having regard to the settlement hierarchy within the development plan including the effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would create a new dwelling in open countryside that fails to meet the special circumstances test under Policy 7 and would harmfully disrupt the rural landscape character of the National Landscape and AGLV.

Framework references: 84

Plan policies cited: Policy 1, Policy 2, Policy 3, Policy 7, Policy 12, Policy 23, saved policy CC-5, Policy C1

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.
