The potential site located within the boundary of the Combe Valley Countryside Park. Although it is acknowledged that the consultation seeks to gauge opinion about the potential and principle of siting wind turbines at this location, additional work will need to be undertaken to determine landscape and ecological impacts, particularly given the objectives of the Countryside Park. No options or alternative sites are put forward for consideration, further work is required to determine whether this is the most suitable location. Reference is made to representations made by Rother District Council regarding wind energy to Hastings 'Planning Strategy' -Proposed Submission Version.
