Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the visual amenity of the listed building and the City and Queens Square Conservation Area
  • Public safety

What decided it

The large-scale advertisement panel, combined with illumination, would appear intrusive and out of keeping in the conservation area and would have an adverse impact on visual amenity that could not be justified by the claimed public benefits.
