Ten Towering Turbines Threaten Shap and the Eden Valley This proposal now seems dormant.  The most immediate threat to the landscape around Shap is for 13 x 125 metre turbines a few hundred yards to the east of Gamesa's original plans. It comes from north east construction company ESH under their infant company Pure Renewable Energies Ltd.  Their proposals are being opposed by CARST.

The above picture was scanned from publicity material.  The quality is poor, but does not disguise the significant impact the proposed wind farm would have on the landscape.  If constructed these turbines will change the landscape and will be visible from points as far apart as High Street, the Cumbrian Mountains, Blencathra, Penrith and the Eden Valley, the Pennines and the Howgills.

The proposed "Renewable Energy Park" consisting of ten turbines of 100 metres which will be seen by many residents of Shap and other villages from their homes, and will almost certainly be heard by many of them.  The construction of such a site, including access roads would change the character of the community.
