The register also records a planning permission expiry in Jun 2012, in the same month as, or before, the permission was granted: it refers to an earlier permission, left off the axis.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 37 months. Construction to first power took about 15 months. The register records a refusal in May 2011 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in June 2012. A planning permission on this site expired in June 2012. The scheme has been operating for about 11 years. That works out at 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
