A 20-metre tall phone mast is planned for north Bristol, blocking views of a historic Grade-II listed orphanage. Network provider Three has applied for planning permission from Bristol City Council to install the phone mast on Ashley Down Road.
The mast would stand in front of the Muller House building, a giant orphanage built in the 1800s and recently converted into flats. Neighbours living in the area have complained that the phone mast would spoil views of the historic buildings. They added that network coverage in Ashley Down is already good, questioning the need for another mast.
