Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the fence development on the living conditions of neighbours at Nos 31 and 35, particularly as regards outlook
  • the effect of the patio development on the living conditions of neighbours at No 31, particularly as regards overlooking

What decided it

The development causes significant harm to neighbours' living conditions through outlook and overlooking, but the enforcement notice was varied to allow modification to comply with permitted development rights as a less onerous alternative to complete demolition.
