Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on visual amenity, with particular regard to the effects on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would not harm visual amenity or character and appearance given its position away from other street furniture, the mixed commercial context, and the busy character of the road approach to the town centre.
