Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The harm to character and appearance from the siting and appearance of the monopole and cabinets in a prominent undeveloped open area, combined with the failure to demonstrate through adequate sequential testing that no more practicable sites in less sensitive locations were available, outweighed the need for the installation.
