This is a view of the main stack of the former Aberthaw Power Station from just outside of what was the Administrative building. The power station, which started power generation from coal in 1960, finally closed in 2020. All you can see in the picturewill be demolished as a consortium of local councils seek to use the site for the generation and transmission of green energy.
