Are you aware of the proposed 253 foot high wind turbine at Fenstanton?

Wind Turbine Blades Close up
You probably don't know this, but planning application has been submitted for a giant 77m (253 foot) high wind turbine at the old Galley Hill Farm chicken farm site (located between the Gravel Pit nature reserve in Marsh Lane and the A14 St. Ives junction) plus 37 tonne of LPG to be stored on-site.
The planning application for the proposed giant wind turbine has already been approved by Hemingford Grey Parish Council.
However Huntingdon District Council have set a deadline of 3rd November to accept public objections!

Comments
It looks likely that the application for the wind farm will be refused or at least kicked into the long grass as Huntingdonshire District have raised a number of issue with the plans. It is believed they have said to Amber Real Estates that if the application is not withdrawn by Friday they will refuse the application.
A withdrawal of the application will however allow them to resubmit a revised application within 9 months. So the long grass then.
