Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the advertisement on the visual amenity of the area

What decided it

The proposal would add visual clutter at higher level that would disrupt the important street scene feature provided by the existing sign and would appear prominent and out of place, contrary to development plan policies.

The potential benefits of increased store visibility and town centre vitality were outweighed by the substantial harm to visual amenity of the area.
