Awarded to the Claymills Pumping Engines Trust for their restoration of Britain's most complete example of a Victorian sewage pumping station. From 1885 to 1971 this site dealt with the effluent from Burton-upon-Trent's brewing industry. Among its many treasures is the oldest steam-driven dynamo in the country.
