How disappointing that this site is even being considered. Let's hope this outcry will be successful!

This is not the place for a mast. It is an iconic area of Wimbledon and should be protected so its attractiveness endures for more centuries ..

St Mary’s is an historic listed building and is an integral part of Wimbledon Village. This unsightly mast in a conservation area will spoil the iconic view and be detrimental to the area.

The mast would be an ugly eyesore on an iconic and much treasured view.

This has to be one of the most beautiful spots in Wimbledon village which, thanks to the iconic steeple of St Mary's church, is known to millions of tennis fans around the world. Please don't let us spoil it in this way.

Locating the mast in such a prominent location which impacts upon the setting of the Listed church, an iconic local landmark, is absolutely not the right thing to do

We do not want a mast in this residential area.

The view of this church has been part of the Wimbledon Tennis television coverage from its inception. It is iconic. You cannot spoil such a beautiful place - and image - by erecting a phone mast.

Not only will my view of St Mary's be spoilt but the mast will be a blemish on the view that every spectator sees from the All England Tennis Club.

The plan is inappropriate for the conservation area.

Location in such an open spot, enjoyed by many for it's views of green space and the historic church seems an ill-considered choice. Although the application states alternative locations that have been considered and discounted, I am not convinced that this site is the only viable alternative and that it would not be possible to position the mast in a less obtrusive location.

A great pity if this is allowed to proceed and overshadow the distinctive view on St Mary's Church, seen by millions worldwide during the annual TV coverage of the Wimbledon Championships and enjoyed year round by residents and visitors in this Conservation Area of Wimbledon Village.
