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 proposed mast's slim pole design and positioning, combined with the existing functional character of the site with multiple vertical structures, means its siting and appearance would be appropriate and would not have a harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area.
