Hi Graham,
This base and removability issue is a new on on me. The lower section of my 40ft mast is made of 4in steel tubing and is stepped in a length of 8in casing fixed in the ground with concrete. The space between the casing and the mast is packed with sand.
If removability eases the planning application this might be a way to go.
Planning rules seem to vary with location and time. You can get the local authority rules on the internet but I guess you have already done that

Those are the  questions  asked,  the  base and removability , checking  up. seems  to  be a  4  year  rule  and  a 10  year  rule , I  thought it  was  7 years  for  no permission  being  required ? or  was that  some time  ago ?
 
Tnx -G..

Hi Graham,
How the mast is fixed into the ground is irrelevant. The planning permission is just for the mast. There is no distinction between permanent and temporary in the planning laws to my knowledge,

In the past some have tried to circumvent the planning restriction by having a portable (mast on trailer) arrangement but I don't think that works.

I live in rather a stuffy private estate and I got permission on appeal on the grounds that the mast was fold-over and I agreed to only have it raised at night. Over the years the people who made all the fuss about the antenna have since died and I put it up when I like. Whether this is due to indifference or fear that the curse of the radio mast will strike again is not known.

Can anyone  advise on the  planning  relevance  / requirements to  these  questions  , with  regards to  Ae pole  at the  bottom of the  garden
 
1. Is the secure base moveable or is it concreted into the ground?
2. Can the mast be readily removed from the secure base?
3. If the mast is a permanent structure, has the refurbishment resulted in the erection of an entirely new mast,
 
what  is the  relevance  of the  base  being concreted into the  ground ?
 
I assume the  question  of  detaching  the  pole from the  base  is  one  of  permanent  or temporary  structure ?
 
replacing  like with  like  would  not  be classed as  a  new mast ?
 
Tnx -G
