Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed collection window on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area
  • the effect of the proposed collection window on the pedestrian environment, with particular regards to safety, anti-social behaviour, and the regeneration of the area

What decided it

The proposed collection window would cause harm to the character and appearance of the building and would result in congregation of delivery riders that would obstruct pedestrian flow and conflict with aims to improve safety in an area identified as a hotspot for anti-social behaviour.
