Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the local area, with particular regard to whether it would preserve or enhance character or appearance of the Stevenson Square Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings
  • Appeal B: the effect of the proposed advertisement on the visual amenity of the area

What decided it

The replacement of an existing unit with only modest increases in scale and footprint, positioned in a similar location between mature trees within a wide pavement, would not result in unacceptable harm to character, appearance or visual amenity, nor would it harm the setting of listed buildings or the conservation area.
