South end of Farringdon station
Looking south into the tunnel that takes the Thameslink line under Smithfield Markets from near the point at which this line diverged from the "widened lines" to Moorgate. To accommodate longer trains on this very heavily used line, it was necessary to extend the platforms at Farringdon across the junction (extension of the platforms at the other end proving impracticable), thus severing the link to Moorgate. On the left, in front of the signal, the CCTV monitors provided so that train drivers can check that the doors are clear can be seen. Farringdon is the point at which trains switch between the two main line electrification systems used in Britain, hence the provision of both 25kV AC overhead wires and 750V DC third rails.

Former Port of London Authority building, Charterhouse Street
Built in 1914.
Underneath this building today (and the old Cold Store building next door) lie a combined heat and power plant. Electricity is generated and the waste heat from the generator is used to heat nearby buildings. It has been in operation since 1993.

Old Port of London Authority building
On Charterhouse Street, EC1. Presumably this location at some remove from the river was involved with import/export associated with Smithfield Market. It is dated 1914.
