PERMISSION GRANTED

1 x post mounted "Village" sign on the public footway Outside 14 Red Lodge Road West Wickham.

A brief presentation in support of the application was given by Planning. The Committee were informed that the proposal would add some appropriate visual interest to this part of the street without appearing unduly prominent in the wider street scene. In addition, there would be no unacceptable impact to neighbouring occupiers or public amenity and no unacceptable highways impact.
