Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed scheme upon the special architectural and historic interest of the appeal site, a Grade II listed building, and whether the proposal would preserve the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
What decided it
The public benefits of supporting an appropriate town centre function and securing a viable future use for the historic building outweighed the less than substantial harm to the building's significance caused by the proposed illuminated signage.
