hwp/hin[26] - modern pumps {at Norton}
![hwp/hin[26] - modern pumps {at Norton}](https://cdn.ipernity.com/200/98/06/53339806.2c646248.640.jpg?r2 "hwp/hin[26] - modern pumps {at Norton}")
I suspect that those pipes conceal Archimedean Screws, as they are quite efficient for shifting water uphill. {correct - 2m diameter & max capacity of 0,75 cum/secs}
I now have to work out where they are ! Not too far from Horsey, if I remember correctly.
A Little Research has told me that this is the Norton & Raveningham Pumping Station - rebuilt 2023 / 2024, on the River Yare, near Reedham, which protects the inhabitants of 788 acres of low-lying land.
.
Plenty of gates & fences keeping wandering humans and other animals out of the compounds.

Norton Pumping Station, constructed in 1945, had suffered major structural failure and required urgent replacement. Funding was secured to consolidate the Norton and Raveningham pumped catchments and build a single replacement pumping station at Norton.
The replacement station features two Archimedes screw pumps operating in a duty/assist configuration. The 2 metre diameter screws lift water 4.5 meters over the flood embankment, and using variable frequency drives, are capable of delivering variable flow rates between 0.3 to 0.75m³/second. Climate resilience is improved with a 50% increase in duty capacity accounting for climate change predictions for intense rainfall events.
An innovative cloud-based telemetry system allows remote real-time monitoring and control of the station.
Keep well and a late HFF from Dj..
