Booker Prize long-listed and international bestselling author Niall Williams is opposing plans for a 10-turbine wind farm to be built near his home in West Clare.

In September, MCRE Windfarm Ltd lodged plans for the 170-metre tall, 10-turbine wind farm at Cahermurphy near the West Clare village of Kilmihil.
