Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the advertisement on the visual amenity of the area including the effect on the character and appearance of the Walham Green Conservation Area
- the effect of the advertisement on public safety
What decided it
The significant scale of the advertisement, being out of proportion to existing advertising in the locality and discordant in its siting, would cause substantial harm to visual amenity and the character and appearance of the Walham Green Conservation Area that could not be outweighed by the limited benefits.
The benefits arising from the building facade representation, public information provision, and economic benefits were outweighed by the substantial harm to visual amenity and the character and appearance of the conservation area caused by the scale and siting of the advertisement.
