While I am in favour of low carbon green energy, this location is totally inappropriate, and appears to be selected purely because of the financial gain for the land owner and convenience of installation and connection. Loss of large amounts of valuable arable land in rural locations will drive up food costs, and impact wildlife which hunts for food on the land. The location is prominent in the local landscape, and with the high proportion of cyclists, equestrians and walkers using the local roads and other rights of way, will impact a wide range of users in the locality, while spoiling the existing view points afforded by the bridleway across the proposal site.
