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 the living conditions of nearby occupants, 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 harm to character and appearance from the siting and appearance of the proposed installation would not be outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed, given the potential for suitable alternatives that had not been adequately investigated.
