THE LONG-AWAITED UNVEILING

Credit cards at the ready! It feels as though we’ve been hearing about the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station since before we could speak, so thank God it’s finally time for us to enjoy it in all its grandeur. Within the two carefully restored turbine halls and chimneys built between 1929 and 1955, you’ll find more than 100 shops and restaurants, a cinema, Lift 109 — which takes you to the top of the north-west chimney for spellbinding views — and much more. Opens 14 Oct (batterseapowerstation.co.uk)
