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 designated open space and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Pinnerwood Park Estate Conservation Area
  • 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 less than substantial harm to the Pinnerwood Park Estate Conservation Area, to which great weight must be given under the Framework, was not outweighed by the economic and social benefits of the 5G installation.
