Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposed extension would comply with the permitted development requirements set by Article 3, Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the GPDO, with specific regard to the impact of the proposed development on the amenity of any adjoining premises

What decided it

The proposed extension would harmfully affect the amenity of the adjoining premises at No. 4 Goose Cote Way through its over-dominant massing and enclosing effect, combined with unresolved overshadowing concerns, and therefore does not comply with the permitted development requirements of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the GPDO.

Framework references: 135

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.
