No More Steaming

The redundant cooling towers at Didcot Power Station loom over the houses in Harwell village. The coal fired part of the power station closed in early 2013 so no more plumes of steam over this local landmark. It's weird, you kind of miss it. So is giving it the "power station (disused)" tag for the first time, it's been steaming away in so many pictures.
