Tellisford Mill

Tellisford Mill is a 55 kilowatts (74 hp) installed capacity micro hydro run-of-the-river power station on the site of a former watermill in the village of Tellisford in the Mendip district of Somerset, England. The mill lies on the River Frome, 5+1⁄2 miles (9 km) north-east of the town of Frome. Part of the Mendip Power Group, the mill was restored to power in April 2007 using a German-made 55 kW vertically mounted Kaplan turbine, which is expected to produce on average 270 megawatt-hours (970 GJ) per year. The turbine replaced a 6 kW (8.0 hp) Francis turbine built in 1895. Tellisford Mill is also home to a photographic studio.
