GALLOPER WIND FARM SUBSTATION
Viewpoint 8 – Abbey Lane
Proposed View
11.3.55. Part of the woodland on the distant skyline will be removed and it
will be possible to see some of the upper parts of the substation, as
minor distant elements in the view. New woodland planting might
just be visible. These changes would be barely perceptible.
Magnitude and Significance of Effect
11.3.56. The magnitude of change at Year 15 would be Negligible. The
sensitivity of the receptors is judged to be Medium. The significance
of effect would be Negligible.
11.3.57. The ‘additional mitigation area’ will not be visible from this
viewpoint. Implementation of the proposed development with the
‘additional mitigation area’ will not change the effects assessed above.
