Plans are afoot to upgrade the pumping station as part of the new Thames 'super' sewer. Not everyone is happy with the proposals, as this http://www.london-se1.co.uk/news/view/7842 suggests. For a description of the building and its internal machinery see this http://www.glias.org.uk/glias/shad-thames-pumping-station.html.
