Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed roof terrace on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and its surroundings within the East Cliff Conservation Area
  • The effect on the living conditions for neighbours as regards privacy and noise & disturbance

What decided it

The rearward position, modest scale, and restrained design of the roof terrace, combined with protective measures against overlooking and noise, meant it would not harm the character of the conservation area or neighbours' living conditions.
