What would have been a fine brick built power station situated on the river on the outskirts of Northampton. The turbine hall has been demolished, or at least one of the walls has, leaving a bizarre ruin of a building propped up with iron struts! The turbine hal would have been similar to the winding house at Penalta Colliery, with brick arches and ornate tiling. I cannot understand why they have half heartedly demolished it? The workshops for the station still stand, but are pretty empty. What I'm assuming is the control room is still standing too, but is still used and is covered with CCTV and speakers linked to a control room (They do work!!). Still really interesting for pics, and for a change some of the graffiti is really top notch
Why is there little to no info on the net about this place??!
