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 upon the setting of the Locally Listed Building of the Newlands Public House
  • the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to outlook
  • 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

The need for the telecommunications installation to be sited as proposed, combined with the demonstration that no less harmful alternative sites are available, outweighs the moderate adverse effects on character, appearance and heritage setting.
