That makes sense. I wouldn't want ads or anything else ugly in a historic area, but also this is normally something you combat locally. It seems like this site targets an oddly broad audience.

A lot of people in Britain live in, work in or regularly visit a historic area.

However, I think they're targeting everywhere in the UK, historic or not.

I can totally see not wanting ads in historic areas, but on their website you can see them protesting billboards in industrial sections and freeway underpasses and the like.

Man, this site almost looks like an intentional distraction from real pollution-fighting measures.
