This was the location of Willow Holme (or Willowholme) Power Station, which was opened in 1927 and closed in 1985. Most of the buildings were demolished in the late 1980s. The land is now occupied by an industrial estate, but there is still a key electricity substation on the site. The power station was extended between 1940-1945, which is when this building was put up - see Image . (Information from Carlisle Encyclopaedia http://www.carlisleshistory.co.uk/page27.htm ).
