Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the amenity of the area

What decided it

The proposed digital display would appear overly dominant and visually intrusive in the streetscene, uncharacteristic and alien to the locality, and would fail to preserve or enhance the conservation area, with any public benefits not outweighing this harm.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy LP24(a)Policy LP25(a)Policy LP25(b)Policy LP35
