Demolition plans submitted for Barrow power station.
Plans have been submitted to demolish the former Roosecote Power Station by its owner Centrica.
The closure of the site was announced in 2012 after controversial proposals to create an 80mw biomass power station were withdrawn.
It is expected the demolition which will see all above ground structures at the redundant plant will be dismantled and the process will take between six and nine months.
This includes the turbine hall; the administration block; the water treatment plant building and associated tanks; the above-ground gas installation; and two fuel tanks.
However, a pump house on Cavendish Dock, the National Grid substation and the boiler house slab will remain.
