I live near Newmarket and the proposed site for the Sunnica Solar Farm of 2,800 acres. I strongly believe this will be a disaster for the local area if this farm is allowed to go ahead. Not only will it ruin a huge area of perfectly good farmland (which may never return if this goes ahead) but it will be an eyesore and ruin lovely natural woodland and walks, not to mention it will be far too close to the all important and historic gallops of Newmarket. Additionally it will potentially be a danger to the community living nearby and actually not be the 'green' solution that everyone is chasing. I fully support the Jockey Club and Tattersals submissions.
