Please help us. In the last few days, Clear Channel have installed an LED advertising hoarding on Aslett Street which is in breach of the planning conditions. The Luminence levels are breaking advertising guidelines, are dangerous to oncoming traffic and its size and brightness is not conducive to a residential area. It illuminates much of the street and surrounding homes impacting normal domestic living.

Totally inappropriate for a residential area. I live nearby and have an advertising board in view of my window and I don’t want to see any more advertising like this in the area. Light pollution is disruptive to sleep and can cause headache conditions to worsen.

I live in Earlsfield. This advertising's brightness is extreme light pollution onto the Garrett lane high street and also the local housing. Several house are opposite it and will now need blackout window lining to stop the light pollution.

Not to mention that we are supposed to care about insect life. This light will kill every moth for miles around as they use light to navigate and this is not the moon. We need LESS light - not this atrocity.

This is fa far far too bright in this position. I nearly crashed my car driving past it going up Garratt Lane towards Wandsworth High Street. The light it gives off is blinding. I can’t imagine anyone living near the sign will be sleeping at night. Totally unsuitable in this location.

The brightness enmities from this sign is entirely unacceptable. It shines through my window on Twilley Street 100m away! Goodness knows what it’s like for the poor people on Askett St.

This is the most ludicrous bit of pointless advertising I have seen, it’s so bright it must be faulty, it shines right into my window and I live on Furmage St, plus who is paying any attention to the adverts, it’s placed on a side rd catching limited impressions with the amount of traffic going past at night.

This is awful light pollution & I dread to think of the effect on local residents & wildlife. Think there will be some road accidents too it's so distracting
