Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the appeal proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the Wolverhampton Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity, with particular regard to the character and appearance of the Wolverhampton Conservation Area
What decided it
The streamlined form and slender proportions of the Street Hub, combined with the urban context of existing street furniture and the ability to control advertisement illumination by condition, meant the proposal would not harm the character and appearance of the conservation area.
