Description


NZ 00 SE MARSKE SKELTON LANE
(east side, off)

8/81 Waterwheel approximately
10 metres west of
Pillimire Bridge
GV II

Waterwheel. Late C19. Wooden wheel with cast-iron axle. Waterwheel
designed to be overshot (although no evidence that the pentrough was ever
constructed), with wooden buckets, sole plates and spokes. Cast-iron axle
at ground level. Wheel is set in rubble-lined wheel race. The waterwheel,
which stands in isolation, is said to have been built to generate
electricity for nearby Skelton Hall, but the scheme was never implemented, a
waterwheel being less well-suited for the purpose than a turbine, and
construction of the Hall, which is still partly a mere shell, was never
finished.
