Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the setting of a designated heritage asset
- The effects of the proposal on highway safety
What decided it
The considerable importance and weight given to the harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset (conservation area) and non-designated heritage asset (Granville Mansions) outweighed the limited benefits of the proposal.
The harm to the conservation area and the setting of Granville Mansions, to which great weight must be given for asset conservation, was not overcome by the limited benefits of public wi-fi, emergency services functionality, and removal of an outdated hub elsewhere
