I object to this planning proposal in the strongest possible terms. The key objections are: 1) the sheer scale - some 400acres that will cover good quality farmland when this type of project should be placed on nearby brown field sites. 2) the village roads around this area are dangerous with poor visibility and this proposal would have make it way worse with high fences, even higher panels and glint and glare. 3) Fire risk posed by 78 containers full of batteries 4) the traffic disruption during construction will be totally unacceptable 5) Soft ground will be covered leading to increased run off and flood risk which, given the unprecedented flooding last winter will just exacerbate problems. 6) loss of wildlife habitat, views, amenity, swathes of trees removed to bury electrical cables which is all totally unacceptable
