Bankside Power Station 1951

Way up on the high scaffolding of the new Bankside power station, which is towering over the tiny house in which Christopher Wren lived, the spider men are building the hugh chimney and station for the new power supply.
Bankside power station opened in 1952 and closed in the late 1980s. The building was later transformed and is now the home of the Tate Modern. Our Picture shows two of the erectors pause in their work to get a light for their pipe and cigarette.
