Why it was refused

  1. The development proposal is contrary to the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements)(Scotland) Regulations 1984 and 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 at sub-fascia level results in a negative addition to the historic frontage and introduces unnecessary visual clutter to the detriment of amenity. There are no material considerations that would justify a departure from the development plan.
  2. Due to the size and nature of the additional vinyl, 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. It is therefore considered to be contrary to Glasgow City Development Plan (2017) policy CDP1 and the associated guidance within SG1.

From the council's decision notice.
