Unsure as to the year photo was taken. Shows the power station from the old access road in Westwood.Looking at the condition of the area it was abandoned and probably ready for demolition.

I like this picture. It has a strange quality about it. It was obviously only taken with a basic camera, but I think it makes it more interesting. There's a dreamy, peaceful character about it.

Glad you like the photo, Ronny. It was a VERY basic camera. A little disc model I used to keep in my pocket just in case I spotted anything of interest. With hindsight I reckon I should have invested in a better model.

From that angle the power station reminds me of an ocean liner at berth! Why do Wigan Council destroy their great buildings?
