Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Harlesden Conservation Area
  • Pedestrian/highway safety
  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity
  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on public safety

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the Harlesden Conservation Area combined with unacceptable harm to pedestrian and highway safety, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh the identified harm.
