Dist:0.5km<br/>Aerial shot of the High Marnham coal-fired power station on the River Trent in Nottinghamshire. The station is now closed. In the background is Fledborough viaduct an extraordinary feat of engineering. The 59 arches and 9 million bricks, not forgetting its central girder spans formerly carried the Lancashire, Derbyshire & East Coast Railway for half-a-mile over the River Trent. The line closed in the 1980's after a derailment.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Built in the late 1950's, High Marnham was one of the first of a new breed of coal fired power stations, desperately needed after the war. It was decommissioned in 2003 and this picture was taken seconds before the main chimneys were demolished.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The coal-fired power station closed in 2003, with subsequent demolition of most of its buildings (but not the cooling towers). There are plans to build a new, gas-fired station on the site http://www.eon-uk.com/generation/Highmarnham.aspx
