Derbyshire wind farm inquiry finishes

The public inquiry into plans to develop a five turbine wind farm on Matlock Moor in Derbyshire ended on Friday 5 March.

A Government planning inspector, who has overseen the inquiry at Town Hall in Matlock, will deliver her final decision by April 30.

The inquiry was launched as North East Derbyshire and Derbyshire Dales district councils were taking too long to make a decision.

A spokeswoman for the district councils said: "These have been extremely complex applications covering a lot of specialist areas and have attracted hundreds of comments from a variety of interested parties from across the local community, as well as detailed comments from statutory consultees."
