(with thanks to Max): Lancaster City Council has received a planning application to upgrade the controversial telephone mast on the Priory on Castle Hill.

The phone mast (disguised as a flagpole) saw opposition when it was first put up a few years ago. Now they want to upgrade it.

If you want object to the application you have until the 29th January, you can do so in writing, or by going here on the Council web site. The Application Reference no. is 09/00011/FUL
