The tallest concrete structure to be demolished in the UK has been blown up.
The chimney of the defunct 244m-tall Grain A Power Station in Kent was transformed into 40,000 tonnes of concrete rubble in a matter of seconds after explosives were detonated.
The demolition sent huge clouds of smoke into the sky as onlookers watched the spectacle.
Originally opened in 1979, the power station was able to produce enough electricity to power more than one million homes before closing in December 2012.
It has been a prominent feature of the Medway skyline for more than 30 years.
The demolition project began in April 2014 and there have previously been five demolition events to bring down the main infrastructure of the plant.
