The application proposes the erection of signage. Representations We have received no privately written representations objecting to the application. Assessment / recommendation

The proposed signage is of a traditional design, in keeping with the existing property. The size of the signage would also be appropriate in this location. For these reasons the proposal would seem appropriate in this location and therefore my recommendation is for an approval.
