All there is to know about Davidstow
A planning application has been made to repower an existing wind turbine at Lower Tregeen, Davidstow Camelford PL32 9XU. The application requests a maximum blade tip height of 77m, together with associated works, to replace a wind turbine permitted and erected under PA13/09438:
The proposed new wind turbine is somewhat larger than the one referred to in the 2013 application. That one was:

The proposed solar farm will occupy two separate fields, both forming part of the Dairy Crest holding and are located in its immediate context.
