Vacant social housing, Bangor (July 2015)
It appears that these properties (of a type once known as “pensioners’ bungalows”), close to Skipperstone Avenue, are owned by a “provident trust” and are three of many similar ones vacant locally without a published explanation about their future. This photograph appears as a matter of neutral record only. I have no connection with the trust or any political party. See also Image

Wind turbine, Bangor (1)
The operational wind turbine (previously seen in Image from a different viewpoint) rising above the trees of Balloo Wood Image According to the Council’s website “The height of the turbine to the hub is 55m. The blades are 24m long. The total weight of the turbine is 98 tonnes. Sensors on the turbine detect wind direction/speed enabling the hub to rotate (yaw) to catch the wind. Depending on wind speeds, the blades will rotate between 3 and 32 revolutions per minute. The turbine will turn between 8 - 55 mph wind speeds. At higher wind speeds, the blades are programmed to 'feather which prevents them catching the wind and the turbine stops for safety reasons.” Continue to Image
