Rottingdean's unwanted phone mast

Available for over a year

The village has been struggling with a phone signal for over a year. George Carden has been to the village. Mobile Broadband Network Limited say: “The development has been positioned near users to meet operational needs. The existing telecoms site on the rooftop of the White Horse Hotel is an accepted feature to the Brighton area. We believe that by positioning the replacement site on the rooftop of St Margaret’s Court the development’s impact would be maintained at an acceptable level due to the site’s distance from more sensitive users and given that the equipment proposed is already an accepted feature of the area.”
