Swung by here on the way back to Leeds after an Ep0c day on the road (plus visiting my Gran in QMC Notts) Absolutely blown away by the scale and form of these structures. Six cooling towers (each 340 ft (100 m) high and 260 ft (79 m) in diameter at the base), two ash slurry hoppers are all that remain at this site now, there's also some new portacabins and demo plant on site...
I was blessed with some good light, enjoy:
Cheers,

Lovely set of pics
The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.

Didn't see the car, but to be fair it was just a passing visit.
