Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development upon the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to privacy, and upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The roof terrace would cause significant harm to the privacy and living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly at Nos. 16 and 20, by providing raised-level overlooking and appearing overbearing and intrusive, contrary to adopted planning policies.

Plan policies cited: Policy 15 of the Lewisham Core Strategy (2011), Policy 31(2.c) of the Lewisham Development Management Local Plan (2014), Policy D3 of the London Plan
