It's going to be big isn't it! For me, too tall, not in keeping with anything in the immediate area. Construction will be many years of noise, dust and disruption. The movement of the freight will be noisy. Construction will destroy the appeal of Burbage Woods (the go to natural area for all around here). It will have a massive impact of increased traffic volume, noise and air pollution within the area and specifically through the 3 villages of Stoney Stanton, Sapcote and Sharnford. The Narborough rail crossing will suffer even worse delays that at present. Just the M69 South opening will result in a very significant number of additional vehicles through the villages mentioned. Site operation will result in heavy vehicles, with drivers unfamiliar with the area, navigating through the village centres which are completely unsuitable for such traffic. The streets are narrow, have tight and blind corners and have mini roundabouts, the negative impact on these 3 villages does seem to have been swept under the carpet
