Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the scale, bulk and mass of the proposed building is appropriate to its stated domestic ancillary purpose and its impact on the character and appearance of the countryside
The effect of the proposal on the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed building, Coppathorne Cottage

What decided it

The proposed building's significantly increased scale, bulk, mass and industrial appearance compared to the previously approved scheme would unacceptably detract from the character of the countryside and cause less than substantial harm to the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed building, which is not outweighed by public benefits.

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.
