The Coaling Jetty, Battersea
This Google Map shows the riverside to the North of Battersea Power Station.
The area is by no means fully developed, but you can see the two Northern chimneys of the power station and their shadows.
On the river there are two structures; the smaller Battersea Power Station Pier for the Thames Clippers and the larger Coaling Jetty, which was originally used to bring coal to the power station.
This summer the Coaling Jetty has been opened as a free public space with bars, chairs, music and entertainment for children.
I can envisage, as more of the riverside opens up, the site will develop further.
The area is certainly worth an explore and there are several places to get food and drink.
