erection of annexe

Authority: Broadland District Council
Appeal type: householder · Householder (HAS)
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Householder developments
Inspector: Bell-Williamson J

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposed annexe would be an appropriate form of development in this location, with particular regard to its physical relationship with the host dwelling
Whether there is sufficient information to assess any effects of the proposal on habitats and biodiversity

What decided it

The physical separation between the proposed annexe and the host dwelling, combined with its self-contained facilities, would prevent it from functioning as an ancillary building in the long term, making it an inappropriate form of development outside the settlement limit.

Plan policies cited: Policy GC2 of the Broadland Development Management DPD, Policy EN1 of the Broadland Development Management DPD, Policy 3 of the Greater Norwich Local Plan (2024)

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.
