Wind farm planned for famous JMW Turner landscape at Bolton Abbey [National Wind Watch]

It is a landscape immortalised on canvas by JMW Turner and in verse by William Wordsworth, but Bolton Abbey, in the Yorkshire Dales, could be “ruined” by the construction of two wind turbines.

The turbines will each be the size of the London Eye and neighbours fear that the scene will be “irrevocably damaged” and that visitors will be put off going to the beauty spot.
