Powick Mills
This is a site long associated with water power but the building in the background is Worcester's first electric power station and the gable wall is dated 1894. It was a combined hydroelectric and reciprocating steam engine plant and was superseded in the 1920s. It is now housing. The hand worked travelling crane in the foreground formerly spanned one of the plant rooms.
