This reinforced concrete building stands just 7.3m E of No.2 engine house (NT17NE 71.05) but its exact function has never been established. It measures 3.05m square within walls 0.62m thick and 2.34m high to its flat roof which is 0.3m thick and has an overhang of 0.15m. The doorway (1.06m wide) is situated at the NW end of the NE side and there is also a window in this side. Both are furnished with heavy-duty steel frames and lying beside the path in front of the building is part of a shutter. In the centre of the roof there is a circular aperture that probably housed a vent. Closer to the SE wall there is a smaller circular aperture that once held a stove pipe.
