I my opinion the proposed pylon line will have a detrimental affect on tourism, one of the main sources of income for the local economy. If you take a look at the many and various glossy photographs on the website for the Anglesey Tourist Board there is not a single pylon in site. Could it be that prospective tourists would be put off visiting Anglesey if they could clearly seen the line of 100 or so pylons already installed on the island? It does make you wonder what their opinion would be if they could see two lines of pylons side by side.
The proposed pylons will also be a significant blot on the rural landscape. The residents of Anglesey have had to put up with looking at ugly pylons for the past 50 years. As a local resident I do not want to look at any more ugly pylons. I am sure I am not alone in this point of view.
The proposed pylons also present a significant risk to the health of local residents who have the misfortune of living in close to the proposed pylon route. Public perception of the detrimental affects to health in living in close proximity to pylons and high voltage overhead power lines is real. It is real for a good reason.
The proposed route will also "blight" many residential properties in close proximity. Many of these buildings are hundreds of years old and are part of the very fabric of the landscape. Many properties, including my own, will be rendered "unmortgageable" as a result of National Grid's proposals. If people are unable to raise mortgages on such properties the buildings will ultimately fall into ruin. Consequently the very heritage of Anglesey will be further eroded for ever.
I would strongly urge the Planning Inspectorate not permit National Grid to litter this beautiful countryside with industrial relics from the 1950's. As a community we need to look after our environment for the generations to come. A second line of pylons appears, to my mind, to be a cheap and nasty quick fix primarily for the benefit of National Grid's shareholders. Investing in an underground or under sea connection would appear the best long term solution for the economy, the environment and for those people who will hopefully live, work and holiday on Anglesey long after we are all gone. ”
