Why it was refused

  1. The proposed advertisement, by reason of its scale, luminance, design and prominent siting, including the incorporation of a large digital LCD display, would appear visually intrusive and result in an obtrusive and cluttered public realm detrimental to the character and appearance of the street scene. The proposal would fail to preserve or enhance the Ruislip Village Conservation Area, resulting in harm to the significance of this designated heritage asset. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies HE1 and BE1 of the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part One - Strategic Policies (2012), Policies DMHB 1, DMHB 4, DMHB 11, DMHB 12, DMHB 13A and DMHB 21 of the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part Two - Development Management Policies (2020), and Policies D3 and HC1 of the London Plan (2021), and the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
