We mill around in the chicken-shit storage shed
The World's First "Chicken Shit" Power Station, Brome, Eye, Suffolk - 11th July 1992
The world's first-ever 'chicken-shit' power station opens in Eye - just up the road from Nosher's gaff. Upon commissioning, the operating company Fibropower throws open the doors for local residents to come and poke around for a few hours and scope out the operation. A gang from the pub decide to go and have a look-see - after all, it's something to do, and there was the worry that the smoke might be a nuisance (it was: the chimney was subsequently extended so that the smoke would blow further away).

The tour guide reads something out
Claire looks up at the heat exchangers
Roaming around a network of shiny steel pipes
Steel-work and pipes
More pipework
A room full of curious tanks
The end result: a 12.7MW generator
More poking around near the generator
The power station control room
