Kearsley Power Station was a coal-fired power station in Stoneclough, near Kearsley, Bolton, England. It was designed in 1927 by Dr H.F. Parshall for the Lancashire Electric Power Company. The original installation was known as Kearsley 'A', comprising two British Thomson-Houston turbo-alternators rated at 32.25 megawatts each. Further extensions became Kearsley 'B' , with two more B.T.H. turbo-alternators each capable of producing 51.6 megawatts. Finally Kearsley 'C' was completed with two more B.T.H. machines rated at 52 megawatts each. The station closed in 1980 when only 'B' station remained operational. The 5 cooling towers were demolished during the week of 14 May 1985.
