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 area
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on pedestrian and highway safety
What decided it
The unduly harmful effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area caused by the excessive height and scale of the monopole, which would appear as a strident and incongruous feature against the established character of the area, outweighed the public benefits of the telecommunications installation.
