Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the setting of the Albert Square and the Stockwell Park Conservation Area, and nearby listed buildings
- highway and pedestrian safety
- the effect of the proposed advertisements on the visual amenity of the area, and on public safety
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation areas and the setting of the listed building could not be outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal, given the great weight that must be afforded to the conservation of designated heritage assets.
the less than substantial harm to the conservation areas and listed building setting outweighed the public benefits of digital connectivity infrastructure, given the great weight required to be given to heritage conservation
