360ft wind turbines near Snowdonia backed by planners

Planners are backing moves to build 16 wind turbines standing 360ft (110m) tall near Snowdonia.

In a report to Denbighshire council, Snowdonia National Park Authority said they will become a "dense cluster".

Brenig Wind's scheme was approved in 2009, but the turbines are now 33ft (10m) higher than originally planned.

They will be five miles (9km) from Snowdonia and the park authority fears they will be a blot on the landscape.

Natural Resources Wales has not objected to the plans.

Planners at Denbighshire council will discuss the matter on 11 November.
