Battersea
Battersea Power Station is a now disused coal-fired power station located on the south bank of the River Thames, near Battersea in London. The station comprises two individual power stations, built in two stages in the form of a single building. Battersea A Power Station was built first in the 1930s, with Battersea B Power Station to its east in the 1950s. The two stations were built to an idential design to each other, providing the well known, four chimney layout. The station ceased generating electricity in 1983, but over the past 50 years it has became one of the best known landmarks in London and is Grade II* listed.[1] The station's celebrity owes to numerous cultural appearances, which include a shot in The Beatles' 1965 movie Help! and being used in the cover art of Pink Floyd's 1977 album Animals.
