Romney Weir Micro-hydro Scheme

Romney Weir hydro opened in 2013.
The twin Archimedes screws replaced two of the weir gates.
This 300kW scheme was funded by Southeast Power Engineering and provides power to the Royal Household at Windsor Castle, with any surplus going to the National Grid.

WINDSOR LOCK [ now called Romney Lock ]

We soon pass through Windsor Lock, still lonely and retired, although so much of business and bustle is close at hand. *
* For the sketch we engrave we are indebted to Commander King, the gallant son of one of "the military knights", who, by the gracious kindness of his sovereign, "reposes" here in happy tranquillity, after a long life of honourable and active labour.
Captain King is well known to, and highly respected by, all artists and lovers of art. He was for many years a regular contributor to the walls of the Royal Academy; and his copies of Claude are among the best that have been made from the pictures of that great master.
