  • LAND SOUTH of QUEENS DRIVE, NANTWICH, CHESHIRE Proposal
    Application No: 14/5841N Location: LAND SOUTH OF QUEENS DRIVE, NANTWICH, CHESHIRE Proposal: Outline planning permission for a residential development comprising of up to 118 residential dwellings (including 30% affordable housing), structural planting and landscaping, informal public open space, surface water attenuation and associated ancillary works, with all matters reserved for future determination with the exception of access Applicant: Gladman Developments Ltd Expiry Date: 24-Mar-2015 SUMMARY: Paragraph 49 of the NPPF states that relevant policies for the supply of housing should not be considered up-to-date if the local planning authority cannot demonstrate a five-year supply of deliverable housing sites and that where this is the case housing applications should be considered in the context of the presumption in favour of sustainable development It is therefore necessary to make a free-standing assessment as to whether the proposal constitutes “sustainable development” in order to establish whether it benefits from the presumption under paragraph 14 by evaluating the three aspects of sustainable development described by the framework (economic, social and environmental). There is an environmental impact in the locality due to the loss of open countryside and agricultural land and the proposal will represent an intrusion into the open countryside. However, the proposal would satisfy the economic and social sustainability roles by providing for much needed housing adjoining an existing settlement where there is existing infrastructure and amenities. The proposal would provide policy compliant levels of affordable housing (for which there is significant demand), as well contributions to education. In addition it would also provide appropriate levels of public open space both for existing and future residents.

Simon for the following reasons; ‘...On the site plans the orientation of the proposed new build shows the side elevation facing the gardens of 340 Crewe Road, Wistaston. As there are two windows on the side wall this will result in loss of privacy for 340 Crewe Road, Wistaston and it will be overbearing. The proposed design for this bungalow is not in keeping with the style of housing immediately surrounding it which is predominantly Victorian/ Edwardian Villas’ DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND CONTEXT The application site comprises of the side and rear garden of No.139A Wistaston Road, Willaston, within the Crewe Settlement Boundary.
