I discovered today that there are proposals to build a wind farm approximately 3.5 km from my house. Since the turbines (5 proposed) are to be 100m high it is likely that they will be visible and possibly audiable from my house.

They are likely to impact everyone living in Bassingbourn, Royston, Stepple Morden, and will completely dominate the village of Litlington (the entirety of which falls within the 2km exclusion zone which would be applied if this were Scotland). This is shown on a map here.

An action group has been formed to represent local residents.

Their December 2011 news letter can be found here (pdf)

The action group is holding a public meeting at Litlington Village Hall on Thursday 17th May at 7:30pm
