Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed roof terrace on the character of the area

What decided it

The roof terrace would not be out of keeping with the host building and surroundings, as flat roofs are already characteristic of the locality and would not have an unacceptable impact on the character of the area.
