Construction of Clyde Wind Farm extension
Miles of new roads have been bulldozed on these hills as part of the 54 turbine extension to the existing 152 turbines of the Clyde Wind Farm, some of which are visible on the distant hillsides.
This phase is currently under construction, with turbines in various stages of construction.
It will be interesting to see how future generations view these developments with the benefit of hindsight - whether the environmental benefits of electricity generation in this way outweigh the destructive nature and huge expense of their construction.
