Yorkshire

As photographer Don Brownlow found, after moving from North Devon to Northumberland, (see his page on the artistsagainstwindfarms website) you cannot escape wind turbines no matter where you move.
Friends who moved to Yorkshire recently (from a North Devon location within a mile of a turbine site) have sent details of a proposal for up to ten 125 metres high turbines at East Heslerton in the Yorkshire Wolds.

This is a link to the website being set up by protestors against this development:

A little further up the road

Here is another short clip from a walk taken in March in the area where the Fullabrook Down Wind Power Station is to be built. This clip was made when I was a little closer to Patsford.

You can find Patsford at this page on the Artists against wind farms website. There is also a link above the map to multimap, you have to switch to their OS version to see the hamlet named.
