Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the advertisement on the amenity of the area
  • the effect of the advertisement on public safety

What decided it

The introduction of continuous moving imagery at a prominent junction adjacent to a Grade II listed building would cause less than substantial harm to heritage setting and would distract drivers and pedestrians at a critical traffic point, with limited commercial benefits insufficient to outweigh these harms.
