Pig farm being built in vicinity of our new home

[rainbowBug]

Hi everyone,

My first post here. I'm completely devastated and could use some advice/perspective.
We bought a house last year in May. We wanted to escape city life but because neither of us grew up in a rural area, we found a compromise and purchased semi attached bungalow on the main road leading to a small village. The village itself is ugly - lots of council houses but the people seem to look after their own gardens and there's a really good nursery and primary in the village, about 10min walk from our house. Our house is on the main road with great access to motorway (apps 5min).
Our plan was to stay here for about five years and then move to Europe or abroad (due to my work).

We just found out that on the other side of the village they're building a pig processing plant!!! We're still trying to get more information to understand if it will be a farm, a slaughterhouse or a pork processing plant but my current understanding is that it may be a farm to accommodate 2000 pigs.
I'm utterly devastated. It's our first home, there was no consultation with the community, I'm dreading the smell, pollution and possible diseases and how this will negatively impact the value of our house. I want to leave ASAP but feel so powerless at the moment. We are tied in a five year mortgage, are in the middle of kitchen renovations and our eldest is just starting primary.
Really don't know what to do so any advice would be welcome.
Does anyone have any idea how this may impact the value of the house? What shall we do? Can they build these facilities without consulting neighbouring communities?
We live in Scotland btw, in case it makes any difference.

If it's still in the planning application stage (sorry, not RTFT) you and other residents could submit an objection. Farms Not Factories have advice on this sort of thing on their website - might be worth a look!

Thanks everyone.
I'm back from holiday now, there's a large construction site and they seem to be flattening a very large area just outside the village. There's no board, we couldn't find any planning permission applications and when we called the council they know nothing about it (or at least they claim they don't).
The neighbour says they're building a pig processing plant, but he heard this from someone else who heard it from someone else so not sure how reliable this is anymore.
Still find it strange that there's no board at the construction site and the council gives no information about it?
Apologies to everyone who may have felt offended by our apparent dislike for the countryside. We love countryside, including the cows and sheep across the road. I think the main issues for us were potential smell, noise pollution, traffic, environmental pollution. I would prefer to have free-range animals around us than industrial farming. But until we know for sure what's going on there's no point being upset I suppose. Thanks for all your input, it helped me to see a bit different perspective and calm down
