Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Effect of the proposed development on character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the setting of a nearby listed building and non-designated heritage assets
Highway and pedestrian safety
Effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity and public safety

What decided it

The replacement hub would be a like-for-like substitution of an existing unit in broadly the same position with only marginal increases in height and footprint, meaning it would not introduce new harm to character, appearance, heritage assets, or safety that would justify refusal.
