Battersea Power Station

Wandsworth

Named after the power station next door, now shops, homes and offices.

Battersea itself is one of London's oldest recorded names: in the 7th century it was Badrices īeg, Badric's island, dry ground in the marshes by the Thames. The station opened in 2021 at the end of the Northern line extension.
