Why it was refused
- The proposed fascia sign by reason of its inappropriate design as a result of its busy and garish appearance and illumination would have a harmful adverse effect on the visual amenities of the area and would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Morriston Conservation Area. The signage is therefore considered to be contrary to Policies PS2, HC1 and HC2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan (2010-2025), and the guidance contained in the Council's Supplementary Planning Guidance document "Shopfront and Commercial Frontages (January 2017).
From the council's decision notice.
