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, in the event that any harm is identified, whether that harm would be outweighed by the need to site the installation in the location proposed

What decided it

The siting and appearance of the proposed monopole would significantly harm the character and appearance of the area, and this harm was not outweighed by the coverage and locational needs of the appellant, particularly as mast sharing at an existing site had not been fully tested.

Framework references: 121
