Clodock Mill - water turbine
Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 14 May 2011
A small low-head water turbine that used to drive a generator when the watermill was not on the mains. The inlet pipe has corroded through and it hasn't run for many years. There is a switchboard in the mill and an old generator is on the bin floor and looks like it might have been the one driven by this (the belt pulley is similar).
