Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed advertisement display on visual amenity
What decided it
The proposed illuminated advertisement display would be visually incongruous, obtrusive and eye-catching in a location with a low-key character, resulting in an unacceptable negative impact on amenity that cannot be mitigated by technical controls or potential community benefits.
