Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The development's harmful effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding rural area, caused by the storage of scaffolding materials, containers, structures, and fencing, which are visually intrusive and incongruous in a countryside setting, outweighs any economic or environmental benefits.

Plan policies cited: Policy ENV1, Policy EMP8, Policy EMP9, Policy SP13, Policy SP18, Policy SP19

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.
