Erection of advertising signage, (unit G),

Why Was This Approved?

• ✓Three signs with applied lettering on the front elevation of a corner industrial unit
• ✓Site recently granted change of use from factory to furniture warehouse
• ✓Industrial trading estate setting considered appropriate for the signage
• ✓Signage judged neither objectionable nor inappropriate by the officer

The application sought consent to erect advertising signage on the front elevation of Unit 16, the corner end unit of industrial premises at the entrance to Snugborough Trading Estate. The signage comprised three separate signs with applied lettering. The unit had recently been granted permission to change use from a factory to a furniture warehouse. The officer considered the signage to be neither objectionable nor inappropriate in the context of its industrial trading estate setting, and the application was approved under delegated powers.

The officer found the three signs with applied lettering to be an acceptable form of signage for a corner unit on an industrial trading estate. Given the recent change of use to a furniture warehouse and the commercial character of the location, the signage was judged neither objectionable nor inappropriate, and permission was granted subject to six conditions.
