Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed advertisement shroud on amenity, having regard to the host property and the street scene, and the character and appearance of the Soho Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed advertisement would be visually dominant and intrusive within the Soho Conservation Area street scene, causing unacceptable harm to visual amenity and the character and appearance of the conservation area that cannot be mitigated by the temporary nature of the consent or the façade replica design.
