PLANS to build five wind turbines on land between Coleshill and Watchfield will be discussed at a public meeting tonight (Friday).

More than 100 homeowners are expected to discuss the issue at the meeting at Watchfield Village Hall from 7.30pm.

People living in all the villages within a two-mile radius of the site, Little Coxwell, Great Coxwell, Longot, Watchfield, Shrivenham, Highworth and Coleshill are expected to attend.

While some residents say the turbines would spoil their view, others are in favour because the turbines generate so-called green electricity.

Each turbine would be 265ft high and 203 ft wide, making them the biggest in the country.

They would create enough electricity to power more than 1,000 homes.

Though the proposed site is 15 miles outside Coleshill the size of the turbines means they would certainly have on impact on the landscape.
