Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal upon the residential amenity of neighbouring properties with regard to noise, activity, and overbearingness

What decided it

The Inspector found no evidence that natural use of the proposed terrace would result in noise at an intrusive level unacceptable in a densely populated residential area, and that the glazed screens would maintain privacy and limit overbearing impacts.
