Phone mast plans for hospital

Sure wants to put up tower

Mobile provider Sure wants to build a new phone mast in the grounds of Noble's Hospital.

The 12 metre-high triangular tower would be placed just outside the Grianagh Court complex.

It's designed to improve phone coverage specifically for the hospital.

Sure, which recently won 'preferred supplier' status for government communication services, says the mast will have a 'limited impact' on the surrounding landscape.

You can see the blueprints online via government's planning portal.
