Why it was refused

  1. The development proposal is contrary to Policy 7 Historic Assets and Places of National Planning Framework 4 (2023), Policy CDP9 Historic Environment and the associated Supplementary Guidance SG9 Historic Environment of the Glasgow City Development Plan (2017). The installation of a lightbox and sub facia signage results in a negative addition to the historic frontage and introduces unnecessary visual clutter. There are no material considerations that would justify a departure from the development plan.
  2. The size and nature of the additional vinyl significantly exceeds that allowed by City Development Plan Policy CDP1 and associated guidance SG1. As a result this would be detrimental to the visual amenity of the shopfront and would harm the appearance and special character of the building within which it is located.
  3. The proposed installation of a combination timber and tile cladding is considered contrary to City Development Plan Policy CDP7 and the associated guidance SG7 as it would be detrimental to the visual amenity of the shopfront and would harm the appearance and special character of the building within which it is located.

From the council's decision notice.
