Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use, and the amount of development

What decided it

The site, despite its designation as public open space, had been unused for over 17 years with no evidence of public use, the area had over-provision of amenity space, and alternative accessible green space was available to residents, therefore the loss of this particular open space would not lead to notable detriment to residents' health and wellbeing.

Plan policies cited: LP Policy 1, LP Policy 12, LP Policy 13, LP Policy 16, LP Policy 25, Climate Emergency Development Plan Document 2023 Policy C1, Climate Emergency Development Plan Document 2023 Policy G1

Read the decision letter on the Inspectorate’s site

The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.

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.
