aerial photograph of Rugeley Power Station taken on its last day of operation. Originally one of two power stations on the site, Rugeley A (600 Megawatts) and Rugeley B (1000 Megawatts) . Rugeley A was opened in 1961 with Rugeley B following in 1970. Originally coal was supplied along a conveyor from the nearby Lea Hall Colliery but after the closure of the Colliery in 1991 the coal was delivered by rail. Rugeley A was closed and demolished in 1995 and now Rugeley B was closed with generation being switched off on the day this photograph was taken. The Power station is now to be demolished.
