In the gables are two substantial relief plaques, on the left: "DWC, 1902", on the right: a coat of arms which we found at as the arms of Willesden, shown on a pre-1910 postcard.

Two power stations have been known, at different times, as Willesden Power Station. The Acton Lane Power Station was commissioned in 1899. And Taylors Lane Power Station was built, as a coal-fired station in 1903 by Willesden District Council. These were both transferred out of Council control, as was happening elsewhere. In a about the privatisation of electricity supply Willesden gets a number of name checks.

An (from the ever-useful Layers of London) labels this building as "London Electricity Board Depot", and shows it with a large rear extension filling in the space between the existing building and the cemetery.
