Wind Turbines

Evidence of income can be shared with serious interest. There is a shed on site which houses the meters and provides free power usage on site in addition to the income generated from the FIT. The meters can be read remotely. The turbines have been maintained regularly.
The Woodland
The woodland is mixed broadleaf and comprises a species mix of alder, birch, ash, sycamore and native broadleaves with open ground throughout. The crop was largely established in 2012 and is no longer under any contract with Scottish Forestry. There are two watercourses running through the property and the land sits between 110 and 118m above sea level.
