Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation and, 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 and appearance of the monopole would cause detrimental harm to the character and appearance of the local area that is not outweighed by the benefits of the installation, particularly given the unreliable evidence dismissing suitable alternative sites.
