A green and pleasant land?

No longer I fear - yes, someone is hoping to erect one of those nasty wind turbines on the hill near Chitterley Business Park- 50 m high apparently! I know it can't be seen from Silverton village but once someone "plants" one of these things in this area, they will spring up everywhere. They look like something out of War of the Worlds and frankly, give me the creeps. I know we need sustainable energy - blah, blah, blah but at what price? And it's not as though it will be benefitting somewhere essential like a hospital, it's just someone with more money than sense - he won't see it from his house, will he? I propose we get this in the local paper and try to do something about it. Will anyone join me? Will anyone dare to comment?
