Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the existing property, a Building of Townscape Merit, as well as surrounding Buildings of Townscape Merit and the Hampton Village Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of surrounding neighbours, with particular regard to overlooking and loss of privacy
What decided it
The modest scale of the proposed parapet raising and balustrade, combined with the existing varied character of the Conservation Area and the restricted views from the terrace, meant the proposal would preserve the character and appearance of the heritage assets and not materially harm neighbours' living conditions.
