    I feel that the size of the site is far too large and will directly impact on those whom live in close proximity. With a little more planning, breaking it down into smaller sites would lesson the... Read more

  • Iain McBain

    This project is in the wrong place as we should not be using valuable farm land for solar projects of this type. There are hundreds of brown field sites around the country that could be used for solar... Read more

    My main objection is the use of good grade land, I believe that it is very important for prime agricultural land to be used for crowing crops, I do not accept that some farming can be achieved even... Read more

    The proposed location is an area of great natural beauty that will be completely destroyed by the construction of a solar farm. The local area will be massively adversely affected during any... Read more

    This Project will ruin a lovely part of the countryside as it is so vast. It will be built on prime agricultural land that surely would be better served growing crops for food. It will disturb the... Read more

    The current plans for the solar farm are too large and will result in productive farmland being lost. In addition there is limited clarity on the status of the land after the solar farms productive... Read more

    I am completely opposed to this project on the basis that: 1. It covers too large an area being nearly 4 times larger than any existing solar site in the country – and placed in the middle of the... Read more

  • Peter Cousins

    This will take up prime agricultural land at a time when we need to be producing more of our own food. Solar should be put on buildings, all new homes, businesses and there should be incentives so the... Read more

    I believe that this development will completely overwhelm the local area with its sheer size and if allowed to go ahead the land lost to this solar farm will never be recovered. While understanding... Read more

    The total site area is immense. Visual harm and loss of agricultural food producing land. Unconvinced that the proposed mitigation area will continue to hold such status. Inevitable construction... Read more

    I full support the application for the solar farm. I have seen the protest banners showing the height of the panels and they are lower than the hedging. You will not be able to see them. We need to... Read more

    These solar farms inevitably use land that should be retained for food production. Moreover, they only produce energy during daylight hours which, at this time of year, is not much - just when it’s... Read more
