Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and its significance as a non-designated heritage asset (NDHA)
Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Blackheath Park Conservation Area (CA)

What decided it

The proposed extension would not be visible from Lee Road or the wider Conservation Area and would preserve the symmetrical front appearance of the pair of dwellings, thereby protecting both the non-designated heritage asset and the character and appearance of the conservation area.

Framework references: 209, 203

Plan policies cited: Policy D3, Policy HC1, Policy DH1, Policy DH3, Policy DH(a), Policy DH(j), Policy DH(h)

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.
