A SCOTTISH local authority’s refusal of a phone mast in a designated Wild Land Area (WLA) has been overturned in a planning appeal.

Perth and Kinross Council has now told the Sunday National it will have to take account of the decision when considering permission for more masts in beauty spots in the controversial rollout.

It is feared the appeal’s success will pave the way to a blight of phone masts in scenic areas where they are not needed.
