Solar2 has developed proposals for a solar farm on land to the south of Monk Sherborne. The site area is c. 57ha.
The site is located on a parcel of agricultural land set back from the A339. The site comprises open fields bisected by a minor road and track, benefiting from natural screening provided by hedgerows with intermittent trees.
The project will generate clean, renewable energy through photovoltaic (PV) solar panels.
The project will be temporary whilst also providing an enhanced bio- diversity benefit to local wildlife during the life of the project.
