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, with particular reference to the setting of the Fulwood Conservation Area, and whether any harm caused is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed, taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The failure to demonstrate that alternative sites had been adequately explored and assessed meant that the public benefits of improved telecommunications could not be shown to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the conservation area's significance, to which great weight must be attributed.

Framework references: 119, 122, 215
