Why these numbers

History. 3 of 6: opponents went to court within six weeks in three of six approvals.

Hunch. By 10 October no group or council had said it was taking legal advice or raising money for a court claim.

How this resolves

The court market resolves on statements by the claimant or the Planning Inspectorate project page, confirmed by BBC News or The Guardian: YES if anyone files a judicial review claim against the Green Hill decision by 19 November 2026, even if it is later withdrawn, and NO if not. A claim made public by 3 December still counts.

The pattern behind it

3 of 6
Three of six times since 2024 opponents took a large solar farm approved by ministers to court within six weeks; three times they did not, short of money or legal grounds.

We looked for cases where ministers in England approved a large solar farm under the Planning Act 2008 while organised opponents fought it, and checked whether they went to court within six weeks. We found six from 2024 to 2026, most in Lincolnshire and the east of England.
