WELCOME

to
CPRE
NORTHAMPTONSHIRE



The Northamptonshire branch of the Campaign to Protect Rural England covers the interests of the people who live in our countryside, villages and our towns: Northampton, Kettering, Wellingborough, Corby, Daventry, Brackley and Towcester.

Northants has a wealth of distinctive landscapes and tranquil areas that demand protection from inappropriate development.
 

windfarms

We in CPRE Northamptonshire favour renewable energy and the reduction of carbon emissions. However, after considerable research, we believe that windfarms are great for developers and landowners but not for the rest of us.

Because this contentious issue is of great importance to many Northamptonshire villages, our technical group has reviewed it extensively. They have now published an extensive report on their findings, together with a two-page Executive Summary.
