The Night Climbers of Cambridge
I hate leaving loose ends, so the blurry through-the-glass shot of the control room I got last visit really wasn't good enough. So, when some other people wanted to make an early-morning visit, how could I resist?
The control desks are absolutely mint:
They're still live as well:
It's a great place to relax and wait for the sunrise:
Every good girl needs a smut detector...
The last page of the duty log is poignant:
With the sun up, we headed up onto the top of one of the travelling cranes:
Where there's a brilliant view down into the turbine hall:
It's also possible to climb down inside the crane girder:
Then up to the roof of the North boiler house - with an active-looking security camera:
And finally a stop-off to leave a comment in the dust:
There are lots more pictures of the control room - and my other two visits to Inverkip - in my Flickr set...
