I do not agree with the solar farm in any way. It’s just a large company who chose land to build on without considering those who live here and love this land. I have grown up walking these fields or riding my horse in them. Visually it will affect the mental health for those who walk down the roads and take in the beauty for health benefits. The road will not be useable actually and the villagers will not have anywhere to walk or exercise pets. Children will not be able to ride their bikes or drive their kiddy cars. I believe this will be a misuse of good quality agricultural land. It is close to the village and school. The health effects for those surrounding. It also changes the area from rural countryside to industrial site which is not acceptable. I hope you will refuse this solar panel farm
