Henfield Tea Gardens , Henfield High Street , Henfield , BN5 9DE

Planning appeal 3267879 at Henfield Tea Gardens , Henfield High Street , Henfield , BN5 9DE (Horsham District Council) was dismissed on 13 September 2021 by Inspector Gethin T, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: The effect of the proposed signs on the amenity of the area.

We wish to apply for permissions for two signs to be attached to the fencing at the front of our property and for one sign to erected on our property just by the front gate. Our property is quite a way back from the road, so we were concerned that potential customers may not realise we are there
