A COMMUNICATIONS mast, recently erected by Network Rail in Honiton, has been taken down for repairs.

A spokeswoman for Network Rail has told the Herald that the mast will be put up again in a few weeks' time.

Residents living within sight of the mast want it removed for good, saying it is twice the size they were quoted by Network Rail.

Residents have been warned not to try and measure the structure themselves.
