Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed design amendments on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties, Shepherds and White Cottage, with particular regard to privacy.
What decided it
The imposition of a condition requiring 1.7m high opaque screening to the sides of the roof terrace would prevent an unacceptable loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers.
