Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the development on highway safety

What decided it

The development creates visual clutter and an unduly busy, overdeveloped feel to a busy section of Edgware Road, failing to respect the otherwise wide, open character of the area and breaching policies requiring regard to character and appearance.
