I wish I've have known that was happening, I could have watched it from here in Sheffield. I'll have to get a picture to compare with mine from a few weeks ago.

The three towers are still standing, there were eight originally, the three remaining were going to be used for a new gas fired power station, but rumour is they are now being demolished.

Its because they are there, with access to river water, SSE had a website with all the plans for the new station but it has disappeared.
