Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the appeal building and the significance of the Commercial Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The well-designed, discrete nature of the roof terrace with lightweight glazed balustrade would not harm the character and appearance of the conservation area or the appeal building, and would comply with development plan policies.
Plan policies cited: Policy S.DH1, Policy S.DH3
