Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisements on the visual amenity of the area, with specific regard to the Meads Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed advertisements would unacceptably harm the visual amenity and character of the Meads Conservation Area as discordant features in an otherwise open setting, and the limited economic benefits do not outweigh this identified harm.
