, Ms Eastwood said: "I have no control over it. Green boxes and this have gone up and I never had a word about it. They were here for four hours and everything in the house was shaking. We have been here for 33 and a half years, I was sure they should have given me some warning." She added: "I think it's a disgrace. Our neighbours can see it when they open the window. What will happen to the price of my house which I have kept in good order? No one will want it." The Rochdale resident confirmed she has lodged a complaint with the council regarding the broadband mast and is hopeful that action will be taken, Manchester Evening News reports. Councillor Neil Emmott, leader of Rochdale Borough Council, has expressed his disapproval over the installation of a large telecommunications structure in the area, referring to it as a "giant monstrosity". He has called upon Ofcom, the UK's communications regulator, to put an end to what he terms as "mast madness" in Rochdale. In a statement to the LDRS, Councillor Emmott said: "This is yet another example of an unsightly and intrusive telecoms development){kind=link}
A 76-year-old woman in Rochdale has complained that a broadband mast from IX Wireless was put up directly outside her home without warning
A 76-year-old woman is furious after a massive broadband mast was erected outside her home, and said it caused her whole house to shake during the installment.
June Eastwood stated that the company IX Wireless did not inform her before commencing work, which caused her entire house to vibrate during the installation process. Alan Chadwick, a neighbour who lives across the street and has a clear view of the pole from his window, confirmed it was installed on August 18.
Ms Eastwood, who has lived in her home for 33 years, now finds herself living next to the towering structure. She expressed fears that further work might be planned, potentially increasing the height of the mast.
In an interview with the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), Ms Eastwood said: “I have no control over it. Green boxes and this have gone up and I never had a word about it. They were here for four hours and everything in the house was shaking. We have been here for 33 and a half years, I was sure they should have given me some warning.”
