Say No To Newlands Wind Farm
Cumwhinton residents and local villagers have launched an action group to fight the Newlands wind farm proposal to build three 115m (377ft) tall wind turbines, that is approx. 32m (104ft) taller than Dixon's Chimney.
These turbines would be situated north east of the Junction 42 of the M6, between the B6263 Wetheral road and Cumwhinton Road.
The site is extremely close to the village of Cumwhinton, many dwellings falling within only a few hundred metres (see picture below).
The action group are of the opinion that the proposed wind farm site will have too many negative impacts on the surrounding area.
This site will be regularly updated so please keep checking back.
