Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effect of the proposed fascia, projected and hoarding advertisement signs on the amenity of the area, with particular regard to the listed status of 39 and 40-41 Nelson Street and the Church of St Peter and St Paul, and the extent to which the character or appearance of the Buckingham Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced
  • Appeal B: whether the proposal would preserve the special interest of the Grade II listed building, known as '40-41 Nelson Street', including its setting, the setting of the listed buildings known as the 'Church of St Peter and St Paul' and '39 Nelson Street', and the extent to which the character or appearance of the Buckingham Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced

What decided it

The projected and hoarding signs would cause less than substantial harm to the special interest of the listed buildings and the character and appearance of the conservation area, which was not outweighed by any public benefits, whereas the fascia sign would preserve these heritage interests.
