New mast site snubbed
Villagers near Oswestry fighting for a communications mast to be removed from near their homes, have snubbed an alternative site put forward by mobile phone giant Orange.
People in West Felton have called for the mast, in fields near The Avenue, to be taken away from homes and schools as they are frightened of possible risks from radiation.
But campaigners say the new site proposed at Aston Moor could be an even bigger blot on the landscape, as the mast may reach 20 metres instead of its current height of 15 metres.
