 Jane and Julian Davis, the couple whose lives have been blighted by turbines erected just 930 metres from their home, have won a landmark case. At a recent Lincolnshire Valuation Tribunal hearing, the tribunal upheld their appeal to have their council tax band level reduced. The Davises' three-bedroom house, valued at £170,000 before the turbines arrived, is now essentially worthless because no one will grant a mortgage on a house blighted by noise pollution.
"It was apparent from the evidence submitted that the construction of the wind farm 930 metres away from the appeal dwellings had had a significant detrimental effect on the Appellant's quiet enjoyment of their properties. The tribunal therefore found that the nuisance caused by the windfarm was real and not imagined and it would have some effect upon the potential sale price of the appeal dwellings"

 After the CAT website was found by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, they wanted to hear our side of the story and why people like us are protesting about wind farms in the UK.
Dr Harry Riches, the CAT spokesperson, held a live radio interview with The Morning Show to explain that whilst turbine plans in Canada are being planned in remote areas, the UK, in comparison, is a small and densely populated island and they are being proposed too close to people.

Filmed in Holland, this video shows how bad shadow flicker can affect properties located too close to a wind turbine.
Whilst not as pronounced as the previous video, this shows the effect where the sun is low in the sky behind turbines. The property here appears to be located some distance away from the turbines, yet is still impacted by shadow flicker.
