SAVE GLEN LEDNOCK
High in the unspoilt mountains just north-west of Comrie, the proposed Glen Lednock and Glentarken wind farms together would create one gigantic complex comprising 31 turbines, each up to 200m high - more than three times the height of the Scott Monument in Edinburgh.
Find out more about our community campaign to stop the devastation of Glen Lednock’s precious rural landscape, the slaughter of iconic birds of prey and the massive traffic disruption in and around Crieff during years of construction.
‘It is Mountaineering Scotland's view that this site in Glen Lednock is not the right place for a wind farm of this size and scale... The impact would not be 'localised' and no design mitigation can diminish the prominence of tall turbines sited on such a high altitude location... Mountaineering Scotland cannot recollect previously encountering such an incoherent and incomplete approach to the presentation of LVIA (Landscape & Visual Impact Assessment) judgements.’ [Our italics]
