Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the amenity of the area with particular reference to the outlook of occupiers of nearby dwellings
  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on highway safety along Magpie Lane with particular reference to vehicles exiting Brambling Mews onto the Lane
  • if any harm would occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The siting would cause both harmful visual effects on residential amenity and a significant reduction in highway visibility at a nearby junction, and the appellant had not demonstrated through a sufficiently robust alternatives assessment that this harm was outweighed by the need for the installation at this location.
