Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed condition is reasonable and necessary in the interests of the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at Nos. 30 and 34 Queen Eleanors Road, with regards to privacy
What decided it
The rooflights would not result in direct views into habitable rooms of neighbouring properties and any views of rear gardens would be peripheral and unclear due to the angles of the rooflights, such that the condition was neither reasonable nor necessary to protect neighbouring privacy.
