Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including the host building and street scene at Nether Edge Road

What decided it

The pergola structures are of excessive scale, protrude into the street scene, and are highly incongruous with the conservation area character, causing unacceptable harm that is not outweighed by any public benefit.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

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.
