Description
Many of London’s original power stations have either been demolished, converted for other use, or stand derelict awaiting redevelopment that is seemingly always just out of reach. These mighty ‘cathedrals of power’ once played a vital role in London’s journey towards becoming the world’s most important city. This book looks at the famous sites that are still standing today, such as those at Battersea and Bankside (now the Tate Modern gallery), are covered in detail, but so are the previously untold stories of long-demolished and forgotten sites.
