I object to valuable arable land being destroyed by a solar panel development. As there are four proposed sites for solar panels in this area, which will total around ten thousand acres, I feel that they should be considered together in order that the enormity of the project can be appreciated. The Lincoln Cliff Road (B1398) is designated as an AGLV and as such should be preserved. I have lived in this area most of my 70 years and have enjoyed the view from this road every time I travel along it. Agricultural land is a valuable commodity. We already have acres of land that now grow crops for a bio digester, and more acres that are now being re wilded. Please do not allow more land to be taken out of food production.
