Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the advertisement on amenity, with specific regard to the character and appearance of the Kingsland Road Conservation Area and street scene
- the effect of the advertisement on public safety, with specific regard to the safe use of the highway
What decided it
The combination of the scale of the proposal, its illuminance, and proximity to other street furniture would result in unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and street scene that outweighed any cited benefits.
