Not everyone is happy with the plan
A 70-acre solar energy farm proposed for farmland near Lancaster could generate green energy for almost 8,000 homes.
However, they are advising councillors to refuse the application for reasons including its large size, disruption to public rights of way and the feared visual impact to the rural area and the nearby Forest of Bowland area of outstanding natural beauty, which has similar status to national parks about conservation and protecting its characteristics.
“The closest part of the area of outstanding natural beauty is mostly wooded and the boundary is between around 300 metres and 600 metres from the site’s eastern boundary.” “Amended plans have removed panels of some areas of the site and increased landscaping, in addition to proposing some changes to the infrastructure. However, the applicant says the alteration will not result in a decrease in the number of panels or total output from the solar farm. They will just be more closely spaced.”
