Camden High Street, Opposite Junction of Inverness Street, London, NW1 7BU

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

• Whether the proposal would achieve an appropriate level of community safety and security at the locality
• The effect on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character of the Camden Town Conservation Area
• The effect on highway safety with particular regard to pedestrian movement
• The effect of the proposal on the amenity of the area, having regard to heritage assets
• The effect on public safety

What decided it

The absence of site-specific mitigation to address opportunistic theft and anti-social behaviour in a vulnerable location, combined with the harmful effect on the character and appearance of the conservation area, outweighed the modest public benefits of digital infrastructure provision.
