Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residents
  • The effect of the proposal on the appearance of the Clapton Square Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would cause substantial harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents and harm to the appearance of the Conservation Area through its obtrusive, frequently-changing illuminated display, which outweighs any claimed benefits.
