Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: the effect of the proposed advertisements on visual amenity
- Appeal B: the effect on the character and appearance of the area and highway safety
What decided it
The generous depth of the footway, good separation from other street furniture, replacement of the existing phone box, and the broad aspect of the street scene with commercial uses meant the proposal would not cause harm to visual amenity, character and appearance, or highway safety.
