Turlough Hill Power Station

BarryD · 2014-06-23 12:42:11

I'd appreciate any info or photos that people may have of the location of what is now Turlough Hill Power Station near Wicklow Gap, prior to it's construction in the 1968-74 period. Both Lough Nahanagan and the hill above. I've tried the ESB without any success so far, although doubtless they must have taken some photos/…

I've tried the ESB without any success so far, although doubtless they must have taken some photos/ surveys prior to construction.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Why join the tour and see if you can do better on site? http://www.esb.ie/main/education/Turlough-Hill-40-years.jsp I am sure they would have photos of before and after.

Thanks.. yes, I've heard of these coming up - maybe worth a look. I was on one a good few years ago but can't recall what they had on display etc.
