I just think it's a waste of good quality farm land plus its going to look horrible all that glass. I was born and raised near and on the old air station and if these solar panels are allowed its going to spoil the whole area. Its not a case of not in my back yard but we need all the farm land for crops and animals not to mention the impact on wild life. Surely there's more places the solar panels could be sited like on Thorne Moors where the land can't be used for crops and livestock plus there's other sites that could be used like on power station sites and on the spoil land where power stations dumped there waste ash. I'm all for alternative energy but against using prime agricultural land.
