Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed street hub on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to whether it would preserve the Stockwell Park Conservation Area, the settings of nearby listed buildings and the setting of the South Lambeth Road Conservation Area
- highway and pedestrian safety
- the effect of the proposed advertisement on visual amenity and public safety
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Stockwell Park Conservation Area, combined with unacceptable harm to pedestrian safety, could not be justified by the moderate public benefits of the proposed hub.
the moderate public benefits of the proposed hub were insufficient to outweigh the considerable importance and weight attached to the identified less than substantial harm to the significance of the Stockwell Park Conservation Area and the unacceptable harm to pedestrian safety
