Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the appeal property
the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties at 5 Allestree Road, and 2 and 4 Kingswood Road, with regard to outlook, privacy, daylight, sunlight, noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposed extension, when assessed within the context of the irregular pattern of existing extensions in the immediate locality and the fact that the existing outrigger already impacts neighbouring amenity, would not result in unacceptable harm to character and appearance or neighbouring living conditions.

Plan policies cited: Policy DC1, Policy DC4, Policy HO11, Key Principle HS6, Key Principle HS7

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.
