Waterwheel
Inside the waterwheel at Claverton pumping station which uses the power of the River Avon to raise water 48ft into the Kennet and Avon Canal. It opened in 1813 and is still capable of undertaking the same work today although now operated only on certain days under preservation. Recently the discovery of a crack in one of the arms of the waterwheel has precluded use until repairs can be undertaken.
