The presence of old dilapidated landing lights on property owned by St John's College, Cambridge, is a tremendous interference for the landowner and the tenant farmer. As such the landowner is very concerned with the DCO proposals and the possibility that new landing lights will be constructed, which will cause even greater interference to the economic viability of this land. At this stage there have been no details provided with regards to what new structures are required and what restrictions there will with regards to farming the land adjacent to these. As such the landowner is not able to take a view on whether or not this will be acceptable and whether they should submit representations to the examination.
