Commercial Road Power Station, Wolverhampton, 8th October 1977

The old Commercial Road Power Station in October 1977, just a few weeks before the Cooling tower was demolished using expolosives. The day it was demolished was a bit of an anti-climax for the crowds that had gathered to witness its demise, as fog shrouded the scene making it impossible to see the full effect of it collapsing.

 

Although now long disused, part of the red brick building still stands to this day.
