The wind farm development could contribute a substantial amount of clean and sustainable electricity to help meet our needs in the face of increasingly significant environmental challenges. In response to our Community Update leaflet we were very pleased that the majority of replies were in favour of the wind farm. We would encourage anyone who wants to demonstrate their support for the planning application to make their views known to the Council. For your convenience there is a letter generating facility on this website - just click on the ‘Support our Proposal’ link on the left and complete your details.
