Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the advertisement on amenity

The temporary nature of the signage combined with its subdued appearance and landscaped setting meant it would not be harmful to visual amenity for the duration of the housing development.

The temporary advertising purpose and visual mitigation measures outweighed amenity concerns in the specific circumstances of an active development site.
