North Leverton - the old and the new
Which is which? Is it the 200 year old (in 2013) windmill and the 2000 MW West Burton power station or is it the fossil fuel powered power station (soon to be closed) and the future widespread use of 'green' wind power - in that order respectively. Not visible in this shot is the real future of the power industry in the form of three units of combined cycle gas turbine to the right of the existing power station. This was visited as part of National Mills Weekend 2013 and was the end to a day of four windmills - three of them working commercially.
