Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the local area
  • Appeal B: the effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity

What decided it

The digital advertisement display would be visually jarring and create visual clutter in combination with nearby existing advertisements, adversely affecting amenity contrary to policy CC5 and advertisement regulations, whereas the kiosk itself without the digital display would enhance the character and appearance of the area.
