EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey back in time to the heart of Littlebrook D Power Station, located in Dartford, Kent. Stepping into the control room, we are immediately transported to an era that exudes both the space age and atomic age vibes. The futuristic design elements resemble a retro spaceship bridge, with its array of dials, switches, buttons, and monitors. James O. Davies skillfully captures this interior view of the power station's control room, showcasing the unit operators' domain. The photograph beautifully highlights the intricate details of the control desk DP249494 as it stands proudly amidst a sea of technology. The image evokes a sense of awe and wonder at how electricity was harnessed and controlled during this period. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to master such complex systems. As we gaze upon this piece from Historic England's collection, we can't help but marvel at how far we have come since then. Yet there is also nostalgia for an era where physical controls were necessary for managing such immense power. James O. Davies has expertly captured not just an image but also a glimpse into history – reminding us of our past achievements while igniting curiosity about what lies ahead in our ever-evolving world of energy production and management.
