Another part of the defunct Kingsnorth Power Station has been blown up this afternoon.

The site, which is getting smaller bit by bit, saw two bunkers demolished at 3pm at the decommissioned power station in Hoo.

Two other buildings, the precipitators, were demolished earlier this year.

Other familiar buildings already flattened include the turbine hall, the coal handling plant and two boiler houses.

The precipitators, which removed dust particles from emissions at the plant, were demolished according to plan on March 29.

The boiler houses were demolished in October last year and in July a coal bunker was blown up.

Kingsnorth was commissioned in 1973 but shut in December 2012 after it reached a 20,000-hour operations threshold set by the EU.

The full demolition programme, including flattening its 650ft chimney, is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

Last September, a crowd which gathered to watch the demolition of Grain Power Station’s 801ft chimney the other side of the river in Gillingham.

However, many but missed it because they were staring at Kingsnorth’s chimney, five miles from Grain.

The full-site demolition programme is expected to be completed by the end of 2017.
