I would like to register to oppose the plans. The panels will not only ruin the view of our beautiful countryside, but the batteries also give off harmful EMFs which may harm the local wildlife, land, and the people around them in our village and also the surrounding area. No consideration has been taken into account of the biodiversity in the local area. The work proposed will also take around 3 years with heavy vehicles driving up and down our narrow country lanes, and the one track roads, potentially increasing the number of accidents, whilst also causing further road damage. Surely, these could be placed on wasteland rather than arable fields.
