LAST weekend, I went to Willey, near Presteigne, for the first time.

In fact I have never been to that part of Herefordshire. What a very special landscape exists there. I found it breathtaking and tranquil.

Yet I discovered that there are plans to build a wind farm. How can that be right, whatever the environmental advantages regarding carbon footprints?

It is what is around us that makes the environment. What possible justification can there be to put an eyesore such as wind farm on this land?

I understand the local authority supports it and that objectors have abandoned their objections, including those charged with safeguarding our countryside.

As a city dweller who had the privilege of visiting this part of Herefordshire, and as a citizen, I wish to register my objection and dismay.
