Aura Power’s proposal to develop a solar farm – Kemble

Written by Parish Clerk on October 26th, 2020March 12th, 2025.

To Crudwell residents, in particular those in Chelworth

We have received information from A. The area of land being considered for the solar farm is on the Bathurst Estate, southwest of Kemble and northwest of Chelworth. The site lies within both Cotswold District Council and Wiltshire Council and the parishes of Kemble and Ewen and Crudwell with Oaksey as the neighbouring parish.

Aura Power is going to conduct a public consultation and is seeking feedback on the proposal from the local community and interested parties.

Because of the current restrictions due to social distancing, it will be a virtual consultation event online to provide further information on the proposed solar farm and the environmental studies that have taken place to date. A recording will be made available to watch for those who can not attend.

Please see attached copy of the flyer that has been distributed to roughly 580 residences in the immediate vicinity of the project. Further information is available on our website where you can also register for the online event: www.aurapower.co.uk/kemble-solar-farm

I have copied all the information received, in the pictures below this post. To register for the event, please to go the Aurapower website, shown above.
