Solar Farm between Bramley and Silchester
A local residents group has been formed to gather views on the planning application for a 200 acre solar farm and to coordinate a response.
The size and the positioning of this proposed development is likely to have a very significant impact on nearby communities.
Who we are
The Solar Farm Residents group is a group of residents, the majority, from the roads around the proposed Solar Farm and others from the villages of Bramley and Silchester who are opposed to this Industrial sized solar installation. The group was founded after ENSO submitted an EIA screening opinion for the Solar Farm to Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council in August 2020. The group is entirely funded by donations from its members and is not aligned to any commercial organisation.
How to Object
Although the statutory published date for public consultation is January 27th we have been assured by the planning officer that comments will be gratefully received, as the decision has not been made yet.
