Description: | Picturing rear of Caroline Terrace and Blaydon Races Hotel (formerly a farmhouse). Stella Power Station was built between 1951 and 1954. Part of the station stood on the site once used for the Blaydon Races. It was designed to burn 2000 tons of coal a day and 22 tracks of railways sidings were constructed to handle the quantity of coal required. (Rounding & Yellowley, 1986). The station was demolished in the late 1980s. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Power Stations | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
