Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- if there is any harm, whether this is outweighed by the need to site the proposed development in the location proposed having regard to the potential availability of alternative sites
What decided it
The substantial benefits of 5G network expansion and improved telecommunications coverage, with no less harmful alternative sites available, outweighed the moderate harm to character and appearance.
