If approved by Sheffield Council, the mast would stand next to Wadsley Church, on Worrall Road, which was built in the 1830s
“I want to make sure we protect our beautiful church from this ugly and unnecessary mast.
“The proposed location of this pole will have a seriously undermining visual impact in front of a historic and much loved church and churchyard which is used for leisure by huge numbers of local people. “The offer of the church to provide mast space represents a far better option which would provide the connectivity needed whilst safeguarding a much loved local space.
“I have been contacted by many local people who are deeply concerned about the impact of this on the community, including the many people who get married in this beautiful place. I encourage everyone locally to speak up against this application.”In the planning application, Tom Gallivan, on behalf of Three, said: ““H3G is committed to providing improved network coverage and capacity, most notably in relation to 5G services.
“The use of the public highway to accommodate a new telecommunications installation complies with both central government and local planning policy guidance, where the underlying aim is to provide an efficient and competitive telecommunication system for the benefit of the community, while minimising visual impact.”To view the plans in full or comment, visit:
