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

What decided it

The lack of up-to-date plans following substantial highway works made it impossible to assess whether the proposal would harm character and appearance, and this uncertainty could not be overcome by the acknowledged need for improved telecommunications coverage.
