What decided it
The significant harm found to visual amenity and the character and appearance of the surrounding areas (and, in some cases, to heritage assets) was not outweighed by the benefits or the lack of harm on other matters.
Moderate weight given to the public benefits of the Street Hub Units did not outweigh the significant harm found to visual amenity, character and appearance, and in some cases heritage assets, resulting in conflict with the development plan as a whole
