Anyone got any idea when this will be explorable? Is it doable during decommissioning or is it best to wait the 2 years for the demolition phase to begin? I've lived almost next to it my whole life and have been waiting for this for a while haha

I don’t know how I’ll get there, but this is an opportunity that I can’t pass up.

May as well have a peek. Just had a look online about it and there isn’t any official dates for Decom and demo, just estimations so it could just start getting cut up at some point. The last coal fired station, plus it’s pretty huge, it’s bound to have some good security.
if you do visit, let us know cause I’d love to get down there as it’s not too far away. I’d love to see a proper power station before they’re all gone
