Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site is in a suitable location for the change of use, having regard to its proximity to schools
- Whether the shopfront alterations would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Hoxton Street Conservation Area
What decided it
The appeal site's proximity to three primary schools within 400 metres makes it unsuitable for a hot takeaway use under Policy LP39, and insufficient information was provided to address the associated health impacts.
Plan policies cited: Policy LP39, Policy LP9, Policy D4, Policy HC1, Policy LP1, Policy LP3
