Residents angry with phone mast plan

Residents opposed to a mobile phone mast in the middle of their neighbourhood are calling for support to launch a campaign against it.

The 10-metre telegraph-style mast with an equipment cabinet at its base will be operated by Orange PCS Ltd. The equipment will replace an existing site at Central Sussex College, on a building that is due to be demolished.
