Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
the living conditions of occupants of 569-571 Lordship Lane with regard to outlook

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance and to neighbouring residents' outlook from the height, prominence and siting of the proposed mast outweighed the public benefits of telecommunications infrastructure provision.

The public benefits of the installation in terms of enhancement of the telecommunications network, contribution to economic growth and operational needs of the operators did not outweigh the significant harm to character and appearance of the area and living conditions of surrounding residents.
