An MP has added his objections to plans for a major solar farm
South Holland and the Deepings MP Sir John Hayes has voiced his objections over plans for a new 48MW solar farm in Holbeach.
He wrote: "I have recently been contacted by a number of constituents who are concerned about the proposals for a 48MW solar farm on land north of Roman Bank and East of Middle Marsh Road at Red House Farm, Holbeach St Marks. "This proposal will have a detrimental impact on the Fenland landscape and the local amenity, changing the character and nature of the surrounding environment forever.
"By removing this land from production it is also likely to impact the sustainability of the farming business that is currently renting it and that could result in job losses."
