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, and the living conditions of nearby residents with particular regards to outlook
- The effect of the siting of the proposal on nearby trees
- Whether any harm would occur and if so, 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 need for the installation to be sited as proposed to provide enhanced 4G capacity and establish new 5G coverage, combined with clear and persuasive evidence that no suitable alternative sites exist, outweighed the identified harm to character and appearance.
