Why it was refused

  1. The proposed fixed refrigerated flower vending machine, by reason of its size, siting, would constitute an unduly prominent and visually obtrusive feature within the street scene that would contribute to excessive street clutter and result in harm to the significance of the locally listed building at 127 The Broadway. against which insufficient public benefit has been identified, to the detriment of the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area, contrary to Policies CDH01 and CDH08 of the LB Barnet Local Plan (2025), Policies D3 and HC1 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies HE5 and HE7 of the NPPF (2026)
  2. The proposed fixed refrigerated flower vending machine, by reason of its siting, within the existing footway, would reduce the effective space available for pedestrian movement and cause undue obstruction and disturbance to pedestrian flow, resulting in unacceptable risk to highway users, particularly vulnerable pedestrians, and visibility concerns for pedestrians entering The Broadway from Goodwyn Avenue, to the detriment of the safe operation of the highway, contrary to Policy TRC01 of the LB Barnet Local Plan (2025), Policy T4 of the London Plan (2021) and Policy TR4 of the NPPF (2026)

From the council's decision notice.
