Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the setting of the Mercers Road/Tavistock Terrace Conservation Area
  • Appeal B: the effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity

What decided it

The modest scale, design and siting of the kiosk, combined with its separation from the Conservation Area by the wide carriageway and its integration within an already visually varied streetscene, meant it would not harm character and appearance or visual amenity.
