We object to the plans to build huge electricity substations near the beautiful village of Friston The substations are too big and too close to a small rural village, the development will swamp and kill the village Scottish Power has not paid attention to the objections raised during previous consultations. Scottish Power plan to dig two trenches stretching for 9km from a fragile coastline, destroying acres of ancient woodland, ANOB land and prime agricultural land. Individual power companies are carving up large areas of the countryside and no one is assessing the cumulative impact of all these projects. The East Suffolk Coast is famous for its tourist attractions, beautiful walks, Snape Maltings Concert Hall, pretty villages. It is an area I have enjoyed many years cycling around All of this will be disrupted or destroyed by years of construction.
