Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed advertisement on the visual amenity of the area, including the Fournier Street/Brick Lane Conservation Area and grade II listed buildings at 10 – 48 Fashion Street
What decided it
The proposed advertisement would be incongruously large, dominant and obtrusive within the corner location, causing harmful effects on the visual amenity of the conservation area and the setting of the grade II listed building, which outweighs any benefits from the temporary nature of the works or the quality of the proposed design.
