Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the amenity of the area

What decided it

The limited scale of the advertisements relative to the building and their appropriate design in the context of the busy Oxford Street streetscene, combined with their proximity to but not location within conservation areas, means they would cause no harm to amenity or heritage assets.
