Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and, if harm would be caused, whether there are any preferable sites or designs available

What decided it

The proposed location is no more intrusive than reasonable alternatives available within the technical limitations of the existing network, and the economic and social benefits of providing advanced communications infrastructure outweigh the visual harm caused.
