Naviete, Nursery Road, Nazeing, Waltham Abbey, Essex, EN9 2JQ

Main house - No change, Outbuilding A - No changes of use, internal renovation of existing kitchen, bathroom and workspace, replacement of damaged windows and doors. Outbuilding B - The workshop hasn't been used as workshop for few years and it stood in bad condition, walls and roof half collapsed. The proposed renovation aims to bring the building to good condition within same footprint as before, only with 1.5m extension to the rear of the garden as indicated on plans. The proposed pitched roof is to match Existing Building B and other surrounding properties. The renovation of the old workshops has no impact on the neighbouring properties, no window oversight

What decided it

The original application did not comply with statutory requirements for submission of necessary plans and drawings, specifically lacking elevations to show a first-floor extension, rendering the application invalid and incapable of determination.

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.
