Lady Gallorett's power station in Essex
Location Information
Business Information
Baddow Fields Power Station is situated on the canalized River Chelmer, between Little Baddow and Ulting, close to Chelmsford.
The power station was under construction for several years. During construction temporary housing was set up for the main generator and steam plant. When construction finished, Lady Gallorett hosted the 'Power Station Ball' in the pristine building before taking the building into use as a proper power station.
Mr. Skerit oversees the day-to-day operations of the station and the maintenance of the surrounding buildings. The assistant engineer, Mr. Bleke, reports monthly to Lady Gallorett mostly on the going-ons and construction progress of the power station, as well as the current situation of the temporary setup.
