I am opposed to the Sunnica application. My submissions are: • The size of the development changes the rural character of the area in which I live. Large areas of solar panels will dominate the landscape. A smaller development would have less impact (though more such schemes would be required across the UK). • It cuts across some of the rural by-ways, bridleways and footpaths. Walking and cycling these is safer and more pleasant than using the roads in this area, which usually have no footpath and can get quite busy. These routes are often used for recreational purposes and their use will be discouraged if they are bounded by security fences.
