The Electricity Works site in Hylton Road, 2004. The works
were built in 1942, replacing an earlier power station from 1903.
By 1979 it had become integrated into the national grid and was consequently
demolished. Today the only remnant of the site remaining is the derelict
pumping station at the rivers edge, while the rest of the area houses
a trading estate although it seems remarkably empty in comparison.
