Controversial plans for a solar farm near the Bath skyline will be reviewed by the Bath and North East Somerset Council’s planning committee on March 18. Dr. Alyson Warhurst’s proposal for 320 solar panels at Rainbow Wood House aims to generate 120% of the electricity for her grade II listed home. Despite local support, 185 objections have been raised, with concerns centered on the impact on the area’s beauty and public views. Objectors claim there’s a disinformation campaign against the project, while Warhurst argues her project is well-planned and environmentally beneficial. Council planning officers support the application, noting its potential to save 30 tonnes of CO2 emissions. The decision now lies with the planning committee.
