■ Villagers will be watching next Tuesday as a40-footlong piece of machinery is lowered into the River Calder for an eco-electricity scheme. The Archimedean screw


’ - a modern development of the machine devised by Archimedes for raising wa- ter-is the mechanism which transforms the power of the river into electricity as the weight of water turns it. The local social enter­


prise company Whaliey. Community Hydro is having it installed on the Billington


■ side ofthe weir at Whaliey. Measuring 12 metres


long, 3.6 m diameter and weighing 13 tonnes, the screw was designed and manufactured by Spaans Babcock Ltd and built in the Netherlands. It is due to ar­ rive at about 9am and a crane will lower it into the river be­ tween 11am and noon. It had been due to be in­


stalled today (Thursday) but heavy rains brought down siltwhichhadtoberemoved. “This is a great day for Whalley Community Hydro,”


said Whalley Hydro director


and project supervisor Bill Wilkinson. “Our principal contrac­


tor, Spaans Babcock of Hey- wood, and civil engineers William Pye of Longridge, have done excellent work in keeping us on track for handover in November.”


Apart from providing


hydro-electricity, the screw will also improve the ecology


ofthe River Calder. Its design incorporates an improved fish pass, which allows fish and young eels to travel upstream more easily to the upper reaches ofthe river. The public will be able to watch the whole operation


fromthebridgeovertheRiv- er Calder in the village and from the public footpath on the Whalley side ofthe weir. Cars are not permitted


down the track to the site, but there are car parks in the village. The project is costing


£750,000, and £439,000 has been raised so far by a share issue. For details, visit www. whalleyhydro.co.uk
