rare opportunity to see inside Wapping Hydraulic Power Station, built in 1890 and London's last hydraulic power station to be decommissioned. The site has been closed for the last ten years, but is now entering a new era under the custodianship of Glass Castle Foundation, which has begun restoration ahead of plans to breathe new life into the building as a centre for experimental arts.

Join us to see inside Wapping Hydraulic Power Station, which has been closed for the last decade. This is a chance to see a prime example of London's industrial heritage from the machines to the boiler house in what was the world's last hydraulic power station to be decommissioned.
Drop-in design and sketching activities will be hosted by Glass Castle's design consultant, architects ByOthers.
The History of Wapping Trust will also be in attendance to share their expertise, maps and publications about the history of the area.
Organised by Glass Castle Foundation, which is bringing Wapping Hydraulic Power Station back to life as a venue for experimental artistic practice.
