10.4.135 There is one World Heritage Site (WHS) located between 10 and 15 km from the application
area. This is the Antonine Wall World Heritage Site. Parts of the WHS are located within the
ZTV of the proposed wind energy development. Much of the WHS is located to the south of the
large settlements on the south side of the Forth and these and other infrastructure reduce
views to the north.
10.4.136 The proposed wind energy development would have no physical impact on the World
Heritage Site and the magnitude of impact on its setting would be negligible. The effect of the
proposed wind energy development on the World Heritage Site would be slight adverse.

10.5.1 There are a number of wind energy developments, either in planning, consented or
operational, that have been identified as having the potential to create cumulative impacts
when combined with the application area. Wind energy developments within a maximum radius
