Why are some people anti-plans for Lime Down Solar Park?
- Published
A petition against plans for a solar farm spanning 2,000 acres (810 hectares) across countryside in north Wiltshire has gained thousands of signatures, with hundreds of people attending a recent public meeting about the proposals too.
The development aims to create 500MW of clean energy, said to be enough to power 115,000 homes.
If approved it would occupy agricultural land in six villages, including Sherston, Hullavington and Stanton St Quintin, near Malmesbury.
