Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including whether or not it would add unacceptable clutter to the street scene within this part of the Walworth Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The Street Hub would be appropriately located within this busy commercial street scene adjoining a modern supermarket frontage (a negative contributor to the Conservation Area), and its installation would replace a dilapidated phone kiosk, resulting in no harm to the character and appearance of the area.
