Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on the amenity of the area, having regard to heritage assets including the Brixton Conservation Area and the adjacent Grade II Listed Building, Reliance Arcade
  • Public safety, with specific regard to pedestrian movement

What decided it

The public benefit of enabling necessary facade renovation works to the deteriorating building outweighs the less than substantial harm to the conservation area over the short 12-month consent period.
