Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation upon the character and appearance of the area, including Minet Conservation Area, and the setting of a nearby locally listed building
Whether any harm would be outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of Minet Conservation Area and the setting of the White Hart building was not outweighed by the economic and social benefits of the telecommunications infrastructure, given insufficient justification for the proposed siting over suitable alternatives.
