Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to outlook and overlooking

What decided it

The frequency of roof terraces in the area and the appropriate design and screening of the proposal meant it would not harm character and appearance or neighbouring living conditions, despite the supplementary planning document's general presumption against flat roof terraces.
