Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the character and appearance of the area
  • 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 alternative sites

What decided it

The siting and appearance of the proposed equipment would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area, and it has not been satisfactorily demonstrated that no other, less harmful options are available.
