Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on amenity
What decided it
The proposed advertisement's height, scale, elevated position and siting would make it an overly dominant feature appearing out of scale with adjacent houses and incongruous in the residential setting, particularly when illuminated at night.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy WLP8.29
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
