Loss of very good farmland when there is currently lack of food in the supermarket. Loss of jobs in the area. My husband worked at west Burton A which has been giving notice of closure and no jobs around for these people. There is already a loss of employment in the countryside and this will be worse. It will cause a drop in the price of our house. There is currently a tourism trade in this beautiful area but it will cause loss of this. Mental health will be affected as many of my neighbours walk in the countryside for thwir mental health. There is a particular neighbour who actually moved to the village to improve her mental health after her husband died and walks 3 times a day with her dog. There is a danger to my children with the batteries. In the event of a fire my water supply would be affected. There is a loss of privacy with the CCTV, The substations run a risk to children and young people, they are unsightly and will damage the local areas. We currently have a number of beautiful birds of prey, barn owls, buzzards and red kites which will be affected by the construction and this change to habitat. It could be very detrimental to wildlife and the environment.
