Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the streetscene and the setting of adjacent heritage assets
- whether any harm caused is outweighed by the need to site the installation in the location proposed, having regard to the potential availability of alternative sites
What decided it
The significant harm to the setting of the listed St George's Terrace, which could not be outweighed by the public benefits of improved telecommunications infrastructure.
The considerable public benefits of advanced digital infrastructure and 5G provision were outweighed by the significant harm to the setting of the listed St George's Terrace and harm to the conservation area setting.
