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 including the Newsham Park Conservation Area, the Grade II Listed Newsham Park Registered Park and Garden and its setting, and with regard to trees
- 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 siting and appearance of the proposed monopole would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the significance of the registered park and garden, which was not outweighed by the public benefits, and suitable alternative sites had not been properly explored.
