Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as 'Cruckwell House Park Cottage' and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
Whether the proposal would preserve the setting, as it relates to the special interest of the Grade II listed building known as 'Barn 4 Metres North East Of Park Cottage'

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the special interest of both listed buildings and the setting of the Barn, which carries great weight and is not outweighed by the minor public benefits of improved accommodation for a single dwelling.

Framework references: 210

Plan policies cited: Policy SD8, Policy SD12, Policy SD13

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.
