  Regulation 17 advertisement consent appeal for a temporary externally illuminated sign at 210-212 Borough High Street, allowed with conditions.[4] The decision includes reasoning on the visual impact of illuminated advertising along Borough High Street which may be of some relevance to future advertisement proposals in central Southwark.[4]

• Appeal decision30 January 2026210-212 Borough High Street, SE1 1JX

  APP/A5840/Z/25/3375417 (allowed)

  The Inspector allowed an advertisement appeal for a temporary illuminated sign, giving weight to the commercial character of Borough High Street and limited visual impact on nearby heritage assets.[6] The reasoning on townscape, setting and visual amenity is likely to be of some use in future signage and heritage-related cases in central Southwark.[6]

  APP/L3625/W/25/3364217, Redhill Railway Station, Redhill

  This appeal was dismissed after the Inspector found less than substantial harm to the significance of several designated heritage assets, including conservation areas and listed buildings. It is not a Southwark decision and is included only because it appeared in the search results.

• Appeal decision19 January 2026Aylesham Centre, Peckham

  APP/A5840/???/25, Aylesham Centre, Peckham

  Southwark Council states that the Planning Inspectorate dismissed Berkeley's initial appeal because the benefits of the proposal did not outweigh harm to designated heritage assets. The source indicates the decision was heritage-led, but the full appeal reference and site address are not provided in the supplied material.

  APP/L3625/W/25/3364217, Site A and Site B, Redhill Railway Station, Princess Way and Redstone Hill, Redhill RH1 1QA

  The appeal was dismissed. The decision includes detailed heritage reasoning on the effect of development on conservation areas and listed buildings, but it is not a Southwark case and is therefore of limited local relevance.
