Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the setting and special interest of Nos 31 to 58 Brunswick Road, which together comprise a Grade II listed building, and on the character and appearance of the Brunswick Town Conservation Area.

What decided it

The replacement doors have a simple, uncluttered design that does not harm the special interest of the listed building, and their location to the rear of the property means they have negligible visibility and effect on the conservation area.

Plan policies cited: Policy CP15, Policy DM26, Policy DM27, Policy DM29

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.
