Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal upon the occupiers of No. 80 Hinderton Road in respect of outlook, light and privacy and, if harm is identified and/or conflict found with the development plan, whether any such harm and/or conflict with the development plan is outweighed by the personal circumstances of the appellant

What decided it

The permitted development fall-back position, combined with the appellant's disability needs requiring the extension to meet specific accessibility requirements, outweighed the technical conflict with the SPG and UDP policies.

Framework references: 130

Plan policies cited: Policy HS11 of the Wirral Unitary Development Plan 2000, House Extensions SPG 2004, Policy 7.2 of the Emerging Wirral Local Plan 2021-2037

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.
