The staff accommodation block on the left is where my family lived in 1951. In front of the Power Station is the duty engineer's quarters, where my father (Raymond Smith) and my mother (Pixie Smith) lived until his retirement in 1956; he cultivated the garden in front of the house. Beyond this, the block on the right was probably offices or accommodation.
