Brunel pump house, Rotherhithe

A museum of Marc Brunel's Thames tunnel alongside one of the original shafts. It then housed a J & G Rennie pumping engine from Chatham that was later removed. Since then a steel chimney has been fixed to the top of the brick base to recapitulate the station's original appearance. Pity the engine was removed.
