Under construction

I had meant to mention the Lisset windfarm in the last post.

Three turbines have been erected now and the blades are being attached to the first one this week. Each 'tower' goes up in four pieces, then the turbine (or whatever it's called) gets lifted into place on top, then the blades.

I saw them for the first time at the weekend. YIKES! THEY ARE MASSIVE! Much bigger than I'd imagined them. You can see them with the naked eye from various spots across the area and the whole 'farm' will certainly look impressive for drivers going up the main Bridlington road past Lisset.
