A planning inspector found the benefits of the energy outweighed green belt protection.
A solar farm the size of about 33 football pitches has been given the go-ahead on green belt farmland despite being rejected by councillors.
But government planning inspector Alison Partington agreed with the developer that benefits of the scheme provided “very special circumstances” that outweighed any potential harm. However, she granted planning permission, after pointing out that national policy presumed in favour of renewable energy development, and that this outweighed the negatives.The inspector also found that the development would not result in a reduction of the gap between Telford and Shifnal, as it was not directly in between.
