Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area having particular regard to the setting of the Woolwich Common Conservation Area and the setting of the listed building Government House, and if any harm would occur, whether this would be outweighed by any public benefits of the proposed development
What decided it
The great weight attached to the less than substantial harm to the heritage assets and character of the area was not outweighed by the public benefits of improved mobile communications, particularly given insufficient evidence that less harmful alternative sites had been fully explored.
