Phil Sutters' photos with the keyword: coal

This is where an endless stream of barges and lighters came to be emptied of their cargoes of coal, to feed the furnaces of the power station.

The huge scale of the power station and its chimneys can be seen here, when it is compared with the people on the ground. The viewing platform at the top of the right hand chimney is 109 metres from ground level. The lift to the top is named 'Lift 109'.

I have yet to find out whether the central spiral is made from parts of the station's original equipment or an artwork inspired by the electrical generation produced there. The rest of the interestingly shaped ironwork clearly is a collection of old working parts.
