    I have concerns about the impact on local villages, roads and environment with large vehicles being on the road. I am also concerned about the impact on local walking and 'supposed' habitat creation... Read more

    I’m fed up with more farmland being used up to build , what is thinly veiled infrastructure, why cannot brown field sites be used , it’s wilfully destructive to the landscape and then in a few years... Read more

  • Wilfred Paul Marbrow

    The race to zero carbon admissions has blindsided many into the implications of trying to achieve the goal by 2050. The use of free solar energy is to be applauded but at what cost, can we really... Read more

  • David Llewellyn

    Thank you for the effort in my quest to stop the unpleasant development. My reasons for rejection are the enormous amount of size of the project -400 acres so close to Walton village. An odd field is... Read more

    I am concerned about the effect on the wild life, the environment and our community

  • Kathleen Pountney

    I object to the impact it will have on the area, and the environment. Also the village with all the extra traffic. It’s far too close to people’s houses, and an absolute eyesore.

  • Jane Cookson

    I feel strongly that solar farms should not be built on good arable land. Brown land sites should be used instead. Also the infrastructure cannot withstand further traffic, as it is already under... Read more

  • Sam Cotter

    The site should not go ahead as it is taking away valuable farm land for food production and natural habitat for wildlife.

  • Gillian Mary Holland

    Whilst understanding the imperative to consider national energy needs in the context of global warming and over-reliance on imported energy, solar power is a small part of the solution, and there are... Read more

    My view is that such a solar project should be built on an existing brown field site which already has infrastructure such as roads, drains etc. This proposed farm is close to a village, school and... Read more

    It is my strong belief, that good Arable land is being used up by projects like this planned soler farm and projects like it. We all know that as the population becomes larger. We will need this good... Read more
