First blade is attached to Turbine Tower No 23

On a dull June morning the first blade is attached to Turbine No 23 on Scout Moor.
At 450 metres above sea level the weather at this location can change dramatically.
Only one hour earlier the top of the tower was not visible due to mist and low cloud.
