92. City Disinfecting Station-Workshops and Shed for dust-carts, ambulances, &c. This work, which was begun in 1910, comprised the removal of the old quarters to the north of No. 2 Tank and the erection on the site thus rendered available of a new building, partly one-storied and partly two-storied. The building contains, on the ground floor, a blacksmith's workshop, 64′ x 15' and a carpenter's workshop, 49' x 15', and, on the upper floor, quarters consisting of two rooms, each 15' 0" x 14' 6", one room, 14′ 6′′ × 9′ 6′′, a kitchen, and a bath-room. The two-storied portion has a verandah of iron and concrete 12 feet wide.
The walls of the ground floor are of granite, which was obtained from the demolition of the old quarters, and those of the upper floor are of red brick in lime mortar, pointed in cement. All the floors are of cement concrete and the roof is covered with double pan and roll tiling.
In addition to the foregoing, an extensive lean-to shed for dust-carts and ambulances was erected on a site to the north of the workshops, bounded on three sides by Caine Lane. The shed has a floor area of 3,568 square feet, the roofing consisting of boarding covered with ruberoid supported on brick pillars and timber rafters.
The work was completed in the beginning of June.
