Having lived in Marton for 31 years I have a good knowledge of the surrounding area. Crops have been grown in the surrounding farmland which is now proposed to have these monstrosities installed, meaning we will feel more enclosed and confined. One of the sites starts only a few yards away from existing residential properties, and also a brand new development which is still under construction. There are possible dangers to health from the on site batteries in the event of a fire which would be devastating both to the local community and also wildlife. There is also the impact on the local area during construction, as this is only a small rural village. IT IS PURE GREED FROM LANDOWNERS AND AN EASY WAY TO MAKE MONEY.
