Residents are opposing plans to build a wind farm in Wiltshire.

Adam Twine, a farmer from Shrivenham, near Swindon, wants to expand his business into energy production.

He has already been given planning permission to build a set of five turbines.

Now he has decided he wants to build the masts taller than originally planned.

More energy

Mr Twine says the new design will be quieter and produce 40% more energy.

But residents in the area are objecting to his proposals, saying that at a height of 81 metres the turbines will be visible for almost 15 miles.

They have formed an action group and say they will hold a protest to make their feelings on the matter clear.

The proposal is set to be considered by planners next month.
