Planners say no to disguised mast
Published on 12/03/2007
SOUTH Lakeland planners have refused proposals for a 15ft mobile phone mast disguised as a 15-metre high flagpole in Grange.
Proposals for the phone mast with integrated antennas were lodged by T Mobile at South Lakeland District Council.
The mobile phone giant hoped to erect the mast on land next to the boundary of St Paul’s Church, on Main Street.
However, a report from planning officers said the structure would have an adverse impact on the sitting of the listed building and within the conservation area in Grange.
SLDC planning officer for Grange, Fiona Clark, said members of the committee have turned down the application.
