Hi

Hoping someone can help with advice on this senerio!

Planning was going through, now there is an about turn as a planning officer has sighted the land as agricultural and it has been proven that it is legally not ! But the officer has stated that in his opinion it is so that is that !!! Where do you go next as this appears to be a personal grudge rather than based on the facts !!!

Help needed please ...

Peckham Rye Park was formed out of agricultural land in 1894.. Maybe under some old Act it still is. ?

The point is it is not agricultural land ...definitely ...but I have read if we go to the ombudsman to appeal they always side with the planners ...so what do you do ...it is personal, we believe the planner has a dislike or had a run in with the architect we are using or the neighbours have a contact in the office to oppose it !!!
Where have you read that the Ombudsman always sides with the planners? If you're that worried about the relationship between the planner and your architect, use a specialist Planning Consultant for an appeal. They deal solely with matters like this, whereas an architect's experience will usually be limited by comparison...

Lot of conjecture in the OP.

If not making sense with planning contact then ask for an alternative person to deal with.

If still not happy then escalate.

Also look for similar local applications and do your history on the people you're dealing with,

Or just join the masons and sort it that way.

    • "That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’. " I'm certainly calling them wrong. And many of those 17 million agree with me now and have expressed regret. Many others were indeed thick, and remain so. You can see them being interviewed all the time. As for insulting, the losing side in that referendum have being called every name under the sun "enemies of the people" etc etc - so spare me the tears about being insulted But for clarity. there is a certain type of individual who even now thinks Brexit was a good idea, tends to side with Trump and holds views about immigrants - and yes I am happy to calll those people thick. - and even worse Jazzer posts a long and sometimes correct post about the failings of modern parties. I myself think labour are woefully underperforming. But equally it has been less than a year after 14 years of mismanagement and despite some significant errors have largely steadied the ship. You only have to speak to other  countries to recognise the improvement there. They have cut NHS waiting times, and the upside of things like NI increases is higher minimum wage - something hard-bitten voters should appreciate. They were accused of being too gloomy when they came in and yet simultaneously people are accusing them of promising the earth and failing to deliver - both of those can't be true at the same time Fact is, this country repeatedly, over 15 years, voted for austerity and self-damaging policies like Brexit despite all warnings - this newish govt now have to pick up the pieces and there are no easy solutions. Voters say "we just want honest politicians" - ok, we have some bad news about the economy and the next few years  - "no no not that kind of honesty!!! - magic some solutions up now!" Anyone who considers voting for Reform because they don't represent existing parties and want "change" is being criminally negligent in ignoring their dog-whistles, their lack of diligence in vetting, their lack of attendance (in Westminster now and in eu parties is guises past) and basically making all of the same mistakes when they pushed for Brexit - basically, not serious people   "cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised." - can we see that promise? I don't recall it? Because whatever voters or govts want, the cost of things is not exactly entirely in their gift. People were warned prices would rise with Brexit and e were told "we don't care - it's a price worth paying!". Turns out that isn' really true now is it - people DO care about the cost of things (and of course there are other factors - covid, trump, tariffs, wars etc.    What the country needs is a serious, mature electorate who take a high level view of priorities and get behind the hard work needed to achieve that. There is zero chance of that happening so we are doomed to repeat failures for years to come, complaining about everything and voting for policies which will make things worse here we have labour 2024 energy manifesto commitments - all of it necessary long term investment - calling for immediate price cuts with no money in the kitty seems unrealistic given all of the economic headwinds   https://www.energy-uk.org.uk/general-election-2024-all-manifesto-energy-pledges/#Labour_Party
    • Regardless of “Blighty” it’s the combination of “we” “R” and “Blighty” we means there is a them  cancerian may or may not recognise a dog whistle.  If he doesn’t, we are trying to point one out.  If he does then they are trying to gaslight us into pretending they are just a lovely fundraising group with no agenda 
    • I’m on Darrell Road and have noticed this recently - your daughters are not alone! It seems to only be at night. Would you agree? High pitched and consistent. I’ve been wondering if it’s a street lamp, or a fox deterrent system.
