Furious residents who used their cars to stop telecoms workmen from installing 500 ugly broadband poles in their town have been stunned to learn they were installed without permission.
Locals had vowed to boycott any internet provider who decides to use the 30ft high wooden 'eyesores', SKYLIFE insisting cables should go underground instead.
East Riding of Yorkshire Council temporarily suspended work last November in Hedon, near Hull, while it investigated 'allegations of unsafe work activity'.
But now more broadband poles have appeared - one outside a resident's window - and Historic England has stepped into the row to reveal several poles breach Hedon's Scheduled Monument status.
The poles were erected as part of a government scheme to improve fibre broadband coverage - but Historic England said consent had not been granted ahead of the work.
Broadband operator MS3, the company that is putting up the poles to carry the broadband fibre optic cables, said it was now working on finding 'the most suitable location'.
