Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed roof terrace on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to whether it would preserve the character and appearance of St Marks Conservation Area
  • the effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers

What decided it

The proposed roof terrace, being of modest proportions, visually lightweight, sitting below the existing roof line, and viewed in context of other existing extensions to the rear of the terrace, would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and would not harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
