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, 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 proposed monopole would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area as an incongruous urban form in open countryside, and this harm was not outweighed by the telecommunications need because less harmful alternative sites had not been properly explored.
