Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Appeal B: the effect of the advertisements on visual amenity

What decided it

The Street Hub's simple, purpose-designed form and alignment with existing street furniture, combined with the urban commercial character of the surrounding area, meant the proposal would not harm visual amenity or the character of the area.
