Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of adjoining properties with particular regard to outlook and light
whether the proposal constitutes sustainable development, in respect of minimising energy use and carbon emissions

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of adjoining properties, particularly regarding outlook and light, combined with the harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area, outweighed any benefits of removing the existing dilapidated building.

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.
