Letter: So, NSDC has decided to recommend approval of the windfarm at Bearstone and thus betray the voices of over 2,300 objectors, six parish councils, two borough councils, local businesses and schools, English Heritage, CPRE, Council for Open Spaces and many, many more.Guidelines are being flouted. Health and safety regulations ignored, wildlife protection brushed aside and utter contempt shown for the people in Dorrington, Bearstone, Knighton, Norton in Holes and Woore.Many of these people live and work in the area, are retired or at home with children and so will have the stress of the noise of the turbines 24 hours a day.Health problems with turbines are well documented but this has not even been mentioned by either the developers or the Council.The warning of Jane Davies from Lincolnshire, whose family had to abandon their farmhouse due to excessive turbine noise, is always in our minds.The nightmare for us all could become reality. But perhaps the hardest cross to bear is that we have been put in this unhappy position by members of our own farming community who have put financial gain beyond all other considerations.Newcastle borough councillors showed strength when, in spite of their officer’s recommendation to approve the access in Knighton, they showed that it was the people who mattered and that they must be protected from the distress that this project would bring.I urge Shropshire councillors to vote democratically and support the residents of their area and not a foreign development company intent on devastating beautiful Shropshire countryside to access huge subsidies.Jane Ellsmoor, Cheshire
