Here's a link showing what happened to a beautiful site in Wales.....

Interesting to wonder if the gravel for the new the roads might have come from Thornborough?

A summary from Dorset Against Rural Turbines (maybe even including a proposal for a farm at Hod Hill?)....

"In summary then:

Wind turbines will not stop global warming;

Are more expensive than all other mainstream power sources;

Do not produce significant amounts of power;
Do disturb nearby residents with noise - causing physical and psychological illness;
Do harm wildlife;
Require the destruction of large tracts of the environment we are allegedly saving;
Require massive funding from the taxpayer; THAT'S FUNDED BY YOU."
