Why it was refused

  1. The proposed digital adverts, by virtue of their size and siting would result in a detrimental impact on the visual amenity of the street scene and the character of the surrounding area. They would jar with the locally listed building, The Church Inn, and the adjacent locally listed building St. Peter's Lychgate. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to Policies D2, DG1, HE1 and HE2 of the Salford Local Plan: Development Management Policies and Designations, and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
