Skeffling is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, in an area known as Holderness. It is situated approximately south of the town of Withernsea and south-east of the village of Patrington on the B1445 road from Patrington to Easington. According to the 2011 UK census, Skeffling parish had a population of 149, a decrease on the 2001 UK census figure of 153.〔 〕 The parish church of St Helen is a Grade I listed building that is situated to the south of the village. It is constructed of cobble with stone dressings and was built in the 1460s.〔 〕 The Greenwich Prime Zero meridian line passes through the village. == Skeffling projects == Among developments in Skefling has been the installation, by Eagle Power, of a 6 kW wind turbine on a free standing mast. This was made possible with help from the BERR's Low Carbon Buildings Program, Langeled's Rural Communities Development Fund, DEFRA, Yorkshire Forward, Humber & Wolds Rural Community Council and with vital help and guidance from Karen Wood, the rural communities' officer from East Riding of Yorkshire Council.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Community Project Case Study Wind turbine )〕 The turbine was installed on 20 February 2007 and powers Skeffling Village Hall, with any excess is sold to the National Grid; the proceeds are used to help maintain and eventually replace the turbine. The decision to use renewable energy was made with long term sustainability in mind. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Skeffling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
