Mobile phone mast opposed
Jun 15, 2006
A 50ft "monstrous" mobile phone mast near a Netherton school is being opposed.
O2 has applied to site the equipment on Cinder Bank, sparking fierce opposition.
If approved it would be next to Corbett Garage and near Hillcrest School and Community College.
Ward councillor Martin Bradney said he feared for the health of pupils at the Simms Lane school and the mast would spoil views from Saltwells Nature Reserve, which backs onto the proposed site for the telecommunications equipment.
He said: "I am no scientist and although the hazards of radiation emitted from masts have not been proved neither have they been disproved." He added that he would support any campaign by residents to block the application.
O2 said it needed a mast to increase network coverage in the area. Spokesman Jim Stevenson said: "I can say categorically that there are no health risks."

And that he did not think it would be unsightly.
