The first plans for a solar farm near Hailsham have been submitted.

Scottish Power has made the first steps in the plans for the Pollard solar farm on land south of Mount Pleasant Farm in Arlington, according to plans on Wealden District Council’s website.

The plans say the site is located 800 metres south west of the The Dicker village and close to Hailsham. Currently used as agricultural fields separated by established hedgerows, the site is an irregular shape.

Could Hailsham be getting a new solar farm?
