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 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 alternative provision

What decided it

The substantial public benefits of enhanced digital communications networks and the absence of alternative sites that would result in lesser harm outweighed the moderate harm to character and appearance.
