GREAT NEWS!!

BWFOG is delighted to report that the Secretary of State has endorsed the Inspector's recommendation to reject West Coast Energy's appeal. This vindicates what we have always said, that this was an inappropriate location for a wind farm and we are pleased that common sense has prevailed and this area of outstanding beauty will be protected for future generations.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the thousands of people across the world who have given their support to this campaign.

The proposed turbines will be visible from:
The Helvellyn Range // The Scafell massif // High Street // Great Gable // the A74 at the Scottish border // Shap // Penrith // Hartside, Pennines and many other key locations throughout the Lake District and Dumfriesshire.
