Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The proposed mast's simple linear form and location within a utilitarian commercial context would result in effects consistent with the character of its immediate surroundings rather than being incongruous or harmful to the street scene.
