    Lightbulb Mobile Phone Masts

    Just a thought about the growing problem of phone masts. I don't dispute that they are needed and there isn't much you can do about roof mounted ones, but I would like to see every mast disguised in some way, either by painting them (black/green) or disguising them as trees or lamp posts.
    They seem to be cropping up everywhere and they are starting to seriously damage our streetscape.
    Any thoughts?

    The latest Mobile Phone mast is inside the tower at St Barnabas, Penny Lane.

    I'll be there next week so I'll get a picture or two.

    I was in Surfers Paradise on the gold coast Australia a few years ago, they have them disguised as palm trees, obviously that wouldn't be a goer in liverpool but it would be dead easy not to make them stand out

    I'm obviously barking up the wrong tree.
