We are not against solar power. We believe in renewable energy, and we know how crucial it is in the fight against climate change. But not at the cost of our countryside. Not here, in the heart of South Norfolk, where centuries-old landscapes, rich biodiversity, and our way of life are under threat from a large-scale industrial solar farm development.

Our green fields, open spaces, and the wildlife that calls this place home are set to be torn apart in the name of progress. This isn't just about a few panels. It's about the destruction of irreplaceable habitats, the erosion of local farming communities, and the loss of a countryside that has defined this region for generations.

We stand firm: there are better locations—brownfield sites, rooftops, and areas already degraded by industry—where solar power can flourish without devastating our natural surroundings. This proposal sacrifices our rural heritage for quick profits, with little regard for the impact on the people, animals, and environment that will suffer.

We support renewable energy, but we cannot support this. We’re fighting to protect our landscape from irreversible damage. Our countryside is more than just a scenic backdrop—it is part of who we are. Once lost, it can never be regained.
