Groudle Water Wheel Rebuild

MMD have completed the rebuild of the Groudle Water Wheel (also known as Little Isabella), returning this Manx landmark closer to its original 1895 design. The project, which follows a previous restoration in the 1980s, was undertaken to commemorate the company’s founders, Ann and Alan Potts.

Part of my childhood memories growing up in Onchan and spending so much time 'down the glen'. Looks great, so must add to my favourites.

Profesional scafolder..

[@TXM]

Very interesting. Could the building not be saved?

[@Mmdsizers]

Unfortunately not, very little was salvageable from the previous restoration. Although some elements of the wheel were restored

[@teescottageguyproductions]

@@Mmdsizers does the wheel run on water now for demonstrations?

[@mattwoodproperty]

@@teescottageguyproductions it was only ever a tourist attraction , as opposed to a ‘working’ wheel , I believe

[@miguelangelvalderrama1808]

That water wheel likes to go faster faster faster faster faster and faster T T.

[@philipphilos4886]

when the flood comes? what will happen?

[@stephen6621]

More power

[@augustcanyon3438]

The wheel is nice, too bad they created an artificial temporary building.
