Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • For Appeal A, the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the effect on designated heritage assets.
  • For Appeal B, the effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity.

What decided it

The proposal's neutral impact on the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of the listed building, combined with the acceptability of the advertisement subject to appropriate luminance and operational conditions, justified allowing both appeals.
