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
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties
- if any harm were to occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking account of any suitable alternatives
What decided it
Although the development would cause moderate harm to character and appearance, this harm is outweighed by the established principle of development under the GPDO and the demonstrated absence of less harmful alternative sites within the constrained search area.
