The register also records a planning permission expiry in Jul 2012, after construction had started: an administrative date with no effect on the wind farm, left off the axis.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 19 months. Construction to first power took about 4 months. The register records a refusal in July 2007 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in July 2008. A planning permission on this site expired in July 2012. The scheme has been operating for about 15 years. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
