We have a windfarm a few miles from where we live, one of those that covers a whole area of hill with white whirlybirds. I hate them as it totally spoils the landscape and devalues the price of the nearby properties. Thank goodness we don't see it every time we look out of a window!


Horses for courses I suppose, but I would have no problem at all seeing those beauties on a hill near me.

How does it 'spoil' the landscape exactly? I'm not saying you are doing this Sanctuary, but sometimes I think people react to change without giving themselves time to work out exactly what it is they don't like.




Because when in the countryside, while we still have some left that is, I like to see the countryside, not a load of wind turbines chuntering away and spoiling the natural look. I live in open countryside about 3/4 of a mile away from the nearest property so I still appreciate most of the open views around me. Go ask the people trying to sell their houses next to windfarms what they think. Stick them all out at sea over the horizon if they are going to be anywhere in my book. But that's just me and accept that others see things differently and are quite entitled to.
