I'm sort of guessing at the name as it's been partially cut off. I'm guessing this one was revealed recently, as there's not too much fading. (Photo taken June 2009.)
Address: Plough Road (just off St Johns Hill), Battersea, SW11.
I spotted this little gathering out of my dining room window at lunchtime on a Saturday - I think they're preparing for a raid on Northcote Road to issue tickets to illegally parked yummy mummies.

Address: 186 Battersea Bridge Road.
Battersea Power Station is a decommissioned Grade II* (Since 2007) listed coal-fired power station, located on the south bank of the River Thames, in Nine Elms, Battersea, in the London Borough of Wandsworth. It was built by the London Power Company (LPC) to the design of Leonard Pearce, Engineer in Chief to the LPC, and CS Allott & Son Engineers. The architects were J. Theo Halliday and Giles Gilbert Scott. The station is one of the world's largest brick buildings and notable for its original, Art Deco interior fittings and decor.
The building comprises two power stations, built in two stages, in a single building. Battersea A Power Station was built between 1929 and 1935 and Battersea B Power Station, to its east, between 1937 and 1941, when construction was paused owing to the worsening effects of the Second World War. The building was completed in 1955. "Battersea B" was built to a design nearly identical to that of "Battersea A", creating the iconic four-chimney structure.
"Battersea A" was decommissioned in 1975. In 1980 the whole structure was given Grade II listed status; "Battersea B" closed three years later. The building remained empty until 2014, during which time it fell into near ruin. The building's renovation was completed nearly forty years after it closed and opened to the public on Friday 14 October 2022, to visit the iconic building and the first tranche of shops, bars, restaurants and leisure venues.
Pub has been done up, so the sign is looking a bit retro. (View of pub building.)
