Carland Cross

[1] Immediately north of the settlement, Carland Cross traffic roundabout is the junction of the A39 and the A30 trunk road.

Highways England's proposals for the Chiverton to Carland Cross improvement scheme were accepted for formal examination by the Planning Inspectorate in September 2018.

[4] Plans by the Spanish-owned operator, Scottish Power, to upgrade and expand the wind farm to 20MW were opposed by a local pressure group called RATS (Residents Against Turbines).

[5] However, the repowering was approved in May 2012 and the new windfarm was officially opened in October 2013 with the 10 new Gamesa turbines having a capacity of 2MW each.

[6] Nearby there are Iron Age burial mounds and flint arrow heads have been found in local fields.
