Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of the top floor flat within 49 Finchley Lane, with specific reference to their outlook

What decided it

The design of the proposed hipped roof sloping away from the neighbouring property, combined with the separation distances and viewing angles involved, would sufficiently moderate the effects on neighbouring occupiers' outlook to ensure acceptable living conditions.
