Dist:0.7km<br/>The right-hand (most southerly) turbine is in the target square. It is on Worth's Farm land, but viewed from the adjacent square due to the difficulty of gaining any closer public access. The photo position also allows all five of Worth's wind turbines to be viewed together. The long winter shadow in the foreground is from one of the three Vine House Farm turbines behind camera.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The foundations consist of some 30 piles in the ground sunk to a depth of 15m, 25 tons of reinforcing and 500 tons of concrete.

Dist:0.8km<br/>This turbine is on Worth's Farm land, but viewed from an adjacent square due to the difficulty of gaining closer public access. Also shown to the right is the anemometry mast that is used to measure wind speed & direction in order to control turbine operations for this and adjacent units in the eight-turbine Deeping St Nicholas wind farm. The long winter shadow is from a nearby Vine House Farm turbine.
