SACRED cows at a manor once owned by Beatle George Harrison have halted a green energy project.
Fears for the well-being of the animals led to hundreds of objections from Hare Krishna followers.
The Hindu movement was given Bhaktivedanta Manor, near Watford, by George in 1973, and turned it into a temple with 63 dairy cows.
The herd is considered a symbol of generosity, gentleness and non-violence.
But their peace would be disturbed by the battery storage site, which also posed a fire risk, the objectors said.
In a rallying cry issued in October, the movement said: “The impact of noise on the Manor’s peaceful environment, which is vital for its meditative activities and sacred cattle, is deemed unacceptable.
“The site’s tranquillity, crucial for both spiritual practices and dairy production, could be significantly disturbed by noise from the new development.”
Chiltern Green Energy’s proposal was rejected by Hertsmere Borough Council in November.
An application has now been made to build farther away.
A Hare Krishna source said: “The fight is far from over.”
Harrison’s interest in Hindu spirituality developed in the 1960s. He died age 58 in 2001.
