I am looking for some information regarding the number of cranes in use for offloading of coal to Battersea Power Station.
Currently working there on Phase 2 of the re-development there is progressive work to restore the jetty and indeed two of the original Stothert and Pitt cranes to their former glory.
Current position is that the jetty is devoid of all mechanical gear including hoppers, conveyors etc. I am informed that the refurbished /overhauled cranes will be tracked in early 2019.
Can anyone tell me if there were 4 cranes on the jetty at its peak of generation or only two as the majority seem to think is the case.
Any other information from collier men regarding the trips to Battersea would be appreciated.
