Why it was refused
- The signage at the north-east junction of Nottingham Road and Old Main Road adjacent to and on the Village Green is considered to result in an unacceptable loss of visibility sightlines for pedestrians and drivers at this junction which, is dangerous to road users. This is considered to be contrary to Policy DM5 of the Allocations & Development Management DPD (2013) and Policy DM5(b) Design of the Emerging Local Plan.
From the council's decision notice.
