Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the Old Uxbridge/Windsor Street Conservation Area, and its effect on pedestrian movement and public safety
- The effect of the advertisements on amenity, with regard to the Old Uxbridge/Windsor Street Conservation Area, and the effect on public safety
What decided it
The strong commercial character of the town centre location with existing illuminated advertisements meant the proposed digital displays would be assimilated into the street scene without material harm to visual amenity or the conservation area's significance.
