Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The living conditions of the occupiers of 90 Parkway and properties on Burnley Road, with particular regard to outlook, daylight/sunlight and privacy

What decided it

The inappropriate external wall materials on the front elevation and the poor design integration of the rear extension and dormer with the original dwelling, which together harm the character and appearance of the host building and area in conflict with the development plan.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

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.
