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 Hampstead Garden Suburb Conservation Area
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 high degree of visibility and prominence of the proposed mast within the conservation area, combined with insufficient evidence that no more suitable alternative site exists, means the harm to character and appearance is not outweighed by the public benefits of improved mobile coverage.
