Homeowner Wins Battle to Remove 40ft Broadband Pole at Driveway 🚧

A homeowner has won a ‘David vs Goliath’ battle with a broadband supplier which agreed to take down a 40ft-high pole it erected at the end of his drive without consultation.

Philip Waller, 65, went "ballistic" when he came home to find that Connexin had put up the pole just 16 feet (5m) from his living room bay windows.

The grandad-of-ten, from Barnsley, South Yorks., then spent weeks gathering dozens of objection letters from neighbours and lodged complaints with councillors - and finally got it removed.
