Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring residential properties with regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposed monopole would appear as an intrusive feature that would harmfully detract from the character and appearance of the area and adversely affect the outlook of neighbouring residents, and this harm was not outweighed by the benefits of improved communications infrastructure.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy CSP1 of the Newcastle-under Lyme & Stoke-on-Trent Core Spatial Strategy 2006-2026
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 130
