Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the continued use of the site for the display of advertisements would cause substantial injury to amenity
What decided it
The advertisements, being small, simple and non-illuminated, were not visually prominent or intrusive within the existing visual context of the busy commercial street and caused very little impact on the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
