Carland cross intro
Road junction
Immediately north of the settlement, Carland Cross traffic roundabout is the junction of the A39 and the A30 trunk road. To the east of the roundabout, the A30 is a dual carriageway road: to the west the A30 is single carriageway and to the south the A39 is also single carriageway. There is motorists' services area, including a filling station, by the roundabout.
Wind farm
Carland Cross wind farm is to the north of the A30 with road access from the roundabout. It is the second oldest windfarm in the UK after Delabole, and was built in 1992. It originally had 15 turbines manufactured by Vestas each with a capacity of 400kW. Plans by the Spanish-owned operator, Scottish Power, to upgrade and expand the wind farm to 20MW were opposed by a local pressure group called RATS (Residents Against Turbines). However, the repowering was approved in May 2012 and the new windfarm was officially opened in October 2013 with the 10 new Gamesa turbines having a capacity of 2MW each.
Antiquities
Nearby there are Iron Age burial mounds and flint arrow heads have been found in local fields.
