The Change Room & Stores Shed

Built-in c1951

The change room & stores shed is a small, timber-framed and -clad rectangular freestanding one-storey building to the west of the cafeteria. Built to accommodate a change room for patients and two storerooms to service the surrounding vegetable fields, it is highly intact and in 2020 is used as a storeroom.  Its original boarded doors have been removed/replaced, and its original roof cladding has been changed from corrugated asbestos sheets to corrugated metal sheets.

Only the former soil storeroom interior was inspected.
