Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the amenity of the area

What decided it

The modest scale, non-illuminated static nature, and siting of the advertisement close to the substation meant it would not detract from the verdant character of the verge and would be appropriate to the character of the area despite proximity to residential properties.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy JP-P1 of the Places for Everyone Joint Development Plan (2024)Trafford Metropolitan Borough Planning Guidelines - Advertisements (1995)
National Planning Policy Framework
