Inspector: Kempton N

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the impact on a mature tree
Whether the proposal represents an appropriate type of development in this location, having regard to the local development strategy for the area
The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers of the holiday lodge, with particular regard to outlook
The impact of the proposed development on drainage and surface water management

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan through harm to character and appearance, failure to meet the policy requirements for tourism development in the countryside, and poor living conditions for future occupiers, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh these harms.

Framework references: 88, 89, 135

Plan policies cited: Policy S4, Policy EC2, Policy C2, Policy ENV1, Policy ENV2, Policy ENV4, Policy ENV5

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.
