Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
  • The living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring residential properties, with particular regard to noise and privacy

What decided it

The installation of the railings does not materially worsen the existing situation regarding overlooking or noise, and the roof terrace use was already lawful, so the development causes no significant harm to character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions.
