A large substation located next to the site of Staythorpe Power Stations; there is also a monument nearby.[1]
1950 Staythorpe Power Station was linked with the East Midlands Area Board's 66kV system by two double-circuit overhead lines, via Willoughby and East Kirby respectively. Two 60MVA transformers provide interconnection between the 66kV busbars and the 132kV grid system by one double-circuit line to Corby; lines to Grantham and Neepsend are under construction in 1950, the latter line being designed for future operation at 275kV /300kV, as part of the proposed "super" grid.[2]
