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 site and surrounding area
  • 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 systematic assessment and rejection of 19 alternative sites on reasonable grounds, combined with the demonstrated need for 5G coverage and the absence of mast sharing opportunities, outweighed the identified harm to character and appearance.
