Fyrish Monument is a vital part of Ross-shire's history and local economy with over 20,000 visitors each year climbing to the summit to be rewarded with breathtaking 360-degree views. However, RWE want to build 20 wind turbines, each standing at a height of 250 meters in the landscape adjacent to Fyrish Monument. These turbines would be the tallest in the UK and will dwarf this iconic landmark which only stands at 10.5meters tall.
We currently have 5 windfarms in the glen and feel that the accumulative impact from this planning consent would adversely affect our community, the wildlife, our heritage and economy.
We the undersigned, call on planning officials to reject RWEs planning application and BAN the building of any turbines in the land surrounding Fyrish Monument and help us protect this iconic landmark and landscape for generations to come.
