This is what's left of what used to be The Willington Web Site

On the Web 1996-2007

I set up a web site for the village of Willington, Derbyshire in the early years of the internet, mainly as a useful purpose for the webspace I got with my then ISP. However, after years of uforgivable neglect, I had to face the fact that I was never going to be able to maintain it as the "community site" it was intended to be. The degree of attention and interaction required is something I couldn't sustain. Besides, the Net has moved on phenomenally since the site first went live with resources such as Facebook fulfilling the role I envisaged for it.

Despite its moribund state, the Willington Web Site still gets many visits each month! This is primarily due to the power station 'micro site'. Consequently, I plan to keep these pages on line for a little while longer, as well as the Blue Bus page, as that is a special part of the village's history too!

In the meanwhile, a new Willington Web Site has been set up by Graham Astle and some of my old content has been transferred over. Please visit www.willington.co and enjoy what the new site has to offer.

Thank you to everyone who has been in touch over the years, and I hope that my lack of time to even reply to emails sometimes will be forgiven.

Oh, and one more thing...

No, I don't know when the cooling towers will be blown up!
