Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the construction of raised decking and balustrades adjacent to the north elevation boundary constitutes a breach of planning control and, if so, whether planning permission should be granted for the development already carried out
What decided it
The decking provides a practical means to address mutual overlooking issues between the properties through a retained screen, and removal would not prevent similar overlooking from lawful permitted development alternatives.
