Firm given three months to remove 60ft mast dubbed ‘The Rocket’ after plonking it on housing estates

A Blackburn firm has reportedly been given three months to remove a huge metal mast after it was plonked in the middle of a housing estate.

Residents in Lymm Walk and Tarvin Road hit out after the huge metal structure – dubbed ‘The Rocket’ – appeared branding it a ‘monstrosity’ and raising concerns about its proximity to their homes. Stockport council also wrote to the Blackburn-based company saying it had installed the mast ‘without notice’, requesting confirmation of its ‘precise purpose’ and any relevant plans and details.

Writing on his Facebook page, Coun Meller said he was not against new telecoms equipment – describing it as ‘absolutely necessary in this day and age’ – but only when done with permission and in a considerate way.
