Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal's siting and appearance on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The siting and appearance of the monopole would cause harmful intrusion into the character and appearance of the surrounding area that could not be overcome by the substantial benefits of 5G infrastructure.

The substantial benefits of 5G telecommunications infrastructure and enhanced coverage were outweighed by the harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area arising from the monopole's siting, height, bulk and intrusive appearance.
