Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties by reason of outlook

What decided it

The scale, design and appearance of the mast and antenna are inappropriate and harmful to the character and appearance of the residential area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, and functional necessity does not overcome this harm.
