Wind farm would be another ‘appalling scar’ on landscape/Berwick Avertiser

A nine-turbine wind farm at Belford Burn would be an “appalling scar” on the landscape, according to nearby residents and some tourists.

Representatives from applicant Energiekontor and Northumberland County Council’s planning department were left in no doubt of the strength of feeling against the development at a public meeting on Monday.

Lord John Walton of Detchant said that the developments at Middlemoor and Wandylaw were a “lesson to us all”, and claimed that irrevocable damage had been done to the landscape.
