PLANS for two wind turbines on farmland near an East Yorkshire town have been blocked.
The proposals would have seen the 25-metre masts being erected at Wold Farm in Driffield, but East Riding of Yorkshire Council said they would harm the landscape of the Yorkshire Wolds, as the area already has several wind turbines.

Are you disillusioned by rising electricity prices, over dependence on the "green" dream and the destruction of our countryside then please register your objection to the Government by googling "petition 22958" and following the link.
Please pass this message on to Councillors, members of your community and anyone else you know to persuade them to sign up too. If you are really concerned about wind turbines please write a letter promoting this petition to the Editors of your local newspapers.
