The Club will wish to consider the potential impact on farmland birds in this area plus waterfowl. The proposed site covers a wide area which appears to include areas of Discover Brightwater. There are existing water features in this area to the north of the proposed site that are well used by water birds and there is evidence that water birds can mistake. solar arrays for water features. In view of the size of this proposal, and other solar arrays that have been approved in the locality, we believe that this is an issue that must be addressed.
