The City Counil have refused permission for a 49ft mobile phone mast to be erected at the junction of Cotham Rd and Cotham Rd South. The reasons were that it would damage a sycamore tree and would be an ‘incongruous, alien and visually intrusive’ feature of the streetscene and would spoil the setting of neighbouring listed buildings.
The applicant does have the right of appeal (which, of course, communities don’t but this time we don’t need to).
Good news indeed and well done the City Council.
