The exposed water wall of Boiler No. 1 reveals a dense network of steel tubes, once vital to White Bay Power Station’s steam production. These pipes formed a protective barrier, absorbing intense heat to convert water into high-pressure steam, feeding the station’s turbines.
The curved pipework and bolted connections showcase the meticulous engineering required to withstand extreme thermal stress. Heat, pressure, and time have left their mark, etching the surfaces with a patina of oxidation and corrosion.
A compelling addition to any industrial photography collection, this print highlights the raw beauty of function-driven design, where power and precision once converged.
