Outrage over plans for another mast
Outrage has greeted plans for another mobile phone mast in Middleton.
One residentwarned thisweek that the proposed additional structure would be a further step towards the destruction of the area's character.
O2 has issued a prior notification to Arun District Council that it intends to put in a 15 metre high mast disguised as a plastic wood
effect telegraph pole on the verge next to the Buckingham Court sheltered housing scheme in Elmer Road.
The mast would have three 3G antennae enclosed within it and would be completed by an equipment cabinet on the ground.
One of the five sycamore trees on the site will be chopped down to make way for it.
Middleton man Mike Pepper, whose home in Tudor Close will be affected by another planned mast in the Southern Water compound
in Middleton Road, said the accumulated impact of the masts was ripping apart the area's traditional appearance.
