Monk Sherborne is currently facing a planning application for an industrial-scale solar farm that would fundamentally alter the character and setting of our village. The proposal will cause significant and lasting harm to our landscape, views, and local environment.

To ensure our concerns are properly heard, we are engaging professional support from an independent planning consultant - Norton Taylor Nunn Ltd . They will provide expert advice, ensuring we are able to present a strong, evidence-based objection on behalf of the village.

Unfortunately, this expertise comes at a cost and we are asking residents and supporters to contribute whatever they can to help fund this work. Every donation will go directly towards professional planning advice and representation, giving our community the best possible chance to protect the village we care about.

There is more information about how the gofundme is managed and who to contact with questions on the village email.

Thank you for supporting the future of Monk Sherborne.
