GreerPritchard was appointed to represent local residents and object to the proposed solar farm for 35,000 ground-mounted units on a 14ha site. The proposed development was situated on Green Belt and within an Area of Great Landscape Value.
Officers accepted our arguments that there would be harm to openness as well as views and neighbouring amenity. Considerable weight was attached to the concerns of local communities. We highlighted relevant recent appeal decisions and National Policy to assist officer's with their decision.
The application was refused.
