Westmill Wind Farm

WESTMILL SOLAR ENERGY AND WIND FARM

A visit and guided tour to the ‘Wetset’ Wind farm and Solar panel array. This has been on our list for some time now without any significant details.

I am pleased to announce today that although it means a change of date this is now fixed for Monday 4^th June.

Transport will be by your own car or hopefully you might share with other members that will be going. The site is near to Shivenham and lies in the Watchfield parish.

 Wind farm location: Westmill Wind Farm, Watchfield, Swindon, SN6 8TH

Note you are looking for a Farm gate to a field, there are no buildings   

We need to be there at 10am for the tour to start at 10.30am. The visit will last around 1 to 1 ½ hours and it is free.

Important note

The visit will entail walking about a mile and a bit. Suitable footware is essential as we will be using unmade paths and if the weather is bad suitable clothing might also be necessary.

As notice is short it will be ‘first come first served’. The site is large and we can take up to 20 persons, so it will be necessary to ask all visitors to sign on when arriving. Those arriving after 10.30 are not likely to gain admission.

All requests to join the visit should be addressed to ASAP.
