Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the living conditions of nearby residential occupiers, with particular regard to outlook
  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on pedestrian movement and safety on Mill Lane
  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on trees
  • whether any harm would be caused in these regards would be outweighed by the need to site the installation in the location proposed, taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The harm to living conditions and pedestrian safety at the proposed location was not outweighed by the need to site the installation there, as the appellant had not demonstrated that no more suitable alternative sites were available within the target coverage area.
