Battersea Power Station
Battersea Power Station, completed in 1939, was the first in a series of very large (for the era) coal-fired electrical generating facilities set up in England as part of the National Grid power distribution system then being introduced. It is a grade II listed building, and is being converted to a large commercial and entertainment complex, as the centrepiece of a project to rejuvenate the surrounding area.
