The River Trent: The images in this grid below form a selection taken from a point just south of the Gainsborough bridge down to West Burton in Nottinghamshire.  West Burton A Power Station, coal fired, is now closed although the new one West Burton B, has almost the same capacity and runs on natural gas.  West Burton A will be demolished but is the designated site for the development of fusion power generation.  The burnt ash or soot from the coal fired boilers has been deposited and graded into the landscape at an area called 'Bole Ings' - an 'Ing' is an old word for 'marsh'.  So the ash deposits are no more.  The Ash trees are suffering from the virus and dying off.  No more ash . . .
