As someone who earns my living working outdoors on neighbouring farmland I am appalled with the suggestion of taking quality land to put what would be an eyesore on the landscape . Working in the countryside is hard enough with the encroachment of towns and housing developments without having 10ft high fences round 140acres of prime farmland covered in 10ft high solar panels . The company tried hard to hoodwink locals with a poor presentation and inadequate information map's that weren't showing the full area .
