Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on the amenity of the occupiers of the first floor flat at No 188 Old Road

What decided it

The appellant's proposed conditions to switch off the display between midnight and 05:00 and reduce luminance to 200cd/m² during other hours of darkness provide sufficient mitigation to prevent harmful effects on the amenity of the neighbouring residential occupiers.
