Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling and the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at 55 and 59 Fernwood Crescent

What decided it

The proposal accords with development plan policies requiring high quality design and adequate privacy, as the deck's siting, height and design do not cause undue harm to character and appearance, and any loss of privacy to neighbours is not significant.

Plan policies cited: London Plan Policy D3, Barnet Local Plan Core Strategy Policy CS5, Barnet Local Plan Development Management Policies Policy DM01, Barnet Local Plan Core Strategy Policy CS1, Barnet Local Plan Development Management Policies Policy DM02
