PLANS for a solar farm between Bradfield and Wix have been resubmitted after being halved in size.
Tendring Council refused Hive Energy’s initial outlines for a 37-acre solar farm at Green Farm, in Oakley Road, after describing it as “unsightly”.
The officers deemed the farm would be out of place and unattractive.
But now Hive Energy has submitted new plans for a farm covering 18.4 acres of the land.
Julian Pertwee, director at Hive Energy, said: “We have been working closely with Tendring Council to put in a new application.
“We have halved the site so that the footpath doesn’t bisect the site.”
