  • the effect of the proposal on visual amenity, including the effect upon the setting of the Grade II listed St Annes House

What decided it

The siting of the display board away from the building, its modest scale, existing screening, and the ability to control illumination through condition meant it would not harm visual amenity or the setting of the listed building.
