Crida Community Wind aims to establish 2 medium-scale turbines on a windy ridge 3 miles west of Bridgnorth in Shropshire.
* The site and turbines have been carefully chosen to minimise impact on landscape, wildlife, noise and other concerns.
On Tuesday 29th November the local planning committee approved the temporary application for a wind monitoring mast at Criddon Hall Farm.
The met mast installation started on site on 8th December but due to high winds had to be completed the following day.
Noise monitoring work by an independent acoustic consultant will be starting shortly.
We’re holding an Open Day at Criddon Hall Farm, WV16 6UJ on Saturday 15 October 2011
Presentations at 11.00 am, repeated at 2.30 pm By Clive Millington of Criddon Hall Farm and by Crida Community Wind
Exhibition 10.30am-4.00pm and an opportunity to ask questions about the project to build 2 community-owned turbines on Clive’s land.
Visits to the proposed site (weather permitting) and views from the farm
Meet some of the local people behind the project and learn how you could join the co-operative.
The exhibition will provide a chance to examine the planned wind turbine location and its visual impact on the landscape, the feasibility studies already carried out on ecology, noise, ‘flicker’ etc and learn about the investment opportunities available. Members of Sustainable Bridgnorth, Sharenergy and the consultants who undertook the analysis of the project will be on hand to answer questions
