Planning committee
Decided by Newcastle upon Tyne Planning Committee on 2 Oct 2026.
Refused
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised refusal because the roof terrace, separated garden seating and bin storage would cause design, amenity and visual harm.
- Residents and consultees raised concerns about noise, disturbance, parking, refuse storage, supervision, antisocial behaviour and the high-level terrace.
- The committee refused permission for four reasons covering design, residential impact, garden seating and refuse storage.
