Description:
Victorian sewage pumping plant disguised under Moorish towers and a Slavic dome with an interior similar to a Byzantine church. It was designed by Bazalgette and Cooper and built in 1865-8 as part of Bazalgette's main drainage scheme for London. The architecture is among the most magnificant of the Venetian Gothic style in Britain. The original Cornish engine pumps were replaced by electrically-operated ones. There are some splendid wrought-iron staircases and decorative cast-iron columns.
