    Will generate too much heavy traffic on the roads through our village that are not built to withstand it. Taking away arable land. No idea what long term damage will be done.

  • Claire Butler

    I think there are a lot more better locations for this project, not so close to a small village where 840 people live! There will be so much loss of valuable farmland, currently in good quality... Read more

  • Miss Jacky Motts

    I strongly oppose the idea of turning 400 acres of good farmland into a solar eyesore. We rely on farming for food/agriculture/wildlife/environment just to name a few. It will look unsightly for local... Read more

    The impact of this project is bad for the area for wild life for increasing flooding the vehicles on the country lanes causing more damage to the roads and more danger to the car drivers of the... Read more

  • Simon Smith

    I agree with the increased use of solar panels but not on good quality farmland. More thought needs to put into using land or areas that have less intrinsic value, for example the roofs of houses and... Read more

  • Tracy White

    Too big a blot on the landscape. ! Farm land lost at a time UK should be more self sufficient not less ( UK becomes more reliable on foreign imports) This does not support the farming community.

  • Elizabeth Ann Bradbury

    Traffic already bad because of the bridge over the river Trent and the huge new housing estate at Drakelow Loss of agricultural land More flooding

  • Geoff Woolley

    I object to viable farming land being used for solar panels. Put them on top of car parks like French do. Or down the side of motorways. On land already grey. Use the money to encourage people to put... Read more

  • Carol Anne Boulton

    I abhor the loss of good quality farm land for this purpose. We have had masses of building of both housing and warehouses in the vicinity where solar panels should have been part of that planning... Read more

  • Charles Cooper

    This is unacceptable. This land could be used for local food production and farming for this country. The roads around Walton can barely cope with the traffic, which has recently increased due to the... Read more

  • Chris Towers

    It’s all about making one person more rich than he is already it would be a massive scar to a beautiful agricultural area not to mention the traffic the pollution of trucks driving in and out on roads... Read more

    The traffic in Walton is bad as it is already let alone with the traffic caused by this, also the wildlife around the area will suffer massively
