Too big - typical Solar Farms in this area are typically in the 20 to 250 acres size range. Change of landscape from agricultural, rich in wildlife to an industrial setting. The area will be changed forever with panels, batteries, fencing, noise and light pollution. Inefficient with a cable route over 15 miles long to reach the connection point at Burwell, criss-crossing roads, railway, rivers, streams pathways and public rights of way. Harmful to Wildlife - removing wildlife corridors, distrubing nesting and feeding habitats, which will not be easily recovered. The local Wildlife Trust is concerned. Impact on Property Values - my property value may fall Traffic chaos - creating noise and traffic through my village
