Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact on amenity

What decided it

The advertisements do not have an unacceptably harmful effect on amenity given the scale of the host building, its modern appearance, the set-back position ensuring they are not overly prominent, and their recessive appearance in relation to the adjoining listed building.
