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, including the setting of the Haven Green Conservation Area, and if any harm is identified, whether that harm is outweighed by the need for the installation in the location proposed, having regard to any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The visual harm to the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the conservation area, combined with failure to demonstrate that alternative sites had been comprehensively explored, meant the public benefits of improved telecommunications coverage did not outweigh the identified harm.

What the Inspector cited

National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 117Paragraph 202
