Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement upon amenity and public safety

What decided it

The advertisement's prominent scale, siting and illumination at a critical junction within a conservation area would cause unacceptable harm to visual amenity and heritage settings, and would create an unacceptable distraction to road users at a point requiring high concentration, with limited public benefits insufficient to outweigh this harm.
