Following the recent changes to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the introduction of “grey belt land”, an Outline Planning Application (for means of access and layout) was submitted to secure the erection of three detached dwellings.

WS Planning & Architecture liaised with external consultants and prepared the relevant Drawings alongside a Planning, Design & Access Statement and a Covering Letter, to support the submission of the application to the Council. WS Planning & Architecture addressed several matters raised during the course of the application and compiled a list of local appeal decisions relating to successful developments on “grey belt land”. Outline planning permission was granted at the local level, subject to conditions.
