Cooling Towers

It’s relevant to the entire energy, power, and pollution thing too, of course – but I can’t deny, it’s relevance to me was more about the location.
I’d love to go inside these towers one day and take photos – although from the sound of it, the photos would just be grey mist.
I grew up quite near there too (in Abingdon), I also worked in Milton Park occasionally which isn’t far away.
I remember going to an open day at the Power Station where they took the public on a guded tour of the place, it was pretty interesting and I would go again if they still run them.
