Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • For Appeal A, the effect of the street hub on the character and appearance of the area
  • For Appeal B, the effect of the proposed advertisements on the visual amenity of the area

What decided it

The proposal's simple, contemporary design and slender profile would assimilate well within the established pattern of street furniture and commercial character of Alvaston District Centre, with conditions ensuring the illuminated displays would not appear visually obtrusive.
