Watch: Cottam power station building demolished
The moment part of a decommissioned power station building was demolished has been captured on camera.
A pre-planned demolition of Cottam power station's boiler house took place earlier, with people on social media saying they could feel and hear the demolition over a wide area.
Dee Dickens, who filmed it from near Rampton in Nottinghamshire, said: "As I have lived in Treswell all my life, it's been a large part of my life. My mam has seen it built and now demolished."
The EDF-owned coal-fired power station had been operating for more than 50 years before it was decommissioned in 2019.
EDF said the demolition of the cooling towers would begin next year.
