Testing time at Didcot A…

Coleman & Company plans cooling tower test blasts.

Test blasts are to be carried out on the base of one of the cooling towers at the defunct Didcot power station.

The coal-fired facility was closed down in March 2013 after 43 years in service.

The demolition work is being carried out by contractors Coleman & Company.
