This is where the Engineer in charge of the pumping station lived with his family so that he was available at all times if there were any problems.  The house was built in 1898, a few years after the pumping station opened in 1894.    It had everything the 19th century family could wish for including  electric lighting, powered by electricity generated using steam from the pumping station, a bathroom, a kitchen range for cooking, a copper for doing the washing and an outside toilet.
