Was that a power station on the left towards the top or an incinerator?


I think it was Brunswick Wharf Power Station, which was demolished soon

Only around for 35 years. Seems like rather a waste of an expensive asset to

the river for deliveries. But then we are rather short sighted in this country.

Half of Battersea operated for even less that...
