Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed roof terrace on the living conditions of occupiers of the adjoining residential property to the east (2 Skylark Close) with respect to overlooking and privacy
What decided it
The proposed roof terrace would create a materially harmful level of overlooking and loss of privacy to the adjoining property, conflicting with UDP Policy H14, NPPF paragraph 130, and the Council's SPG.
Framework references: 130
