Title
Dee Village Electricity Works
Description
This photograph shows the engine room of the Dee Village Electricity Works on 4th March 1903 as it nears completion. In addition to the electricity generating machinery the works included a suite of airy, brightly-lit offices, including an inquiry and waiting-room, a clerk's room, chief clerk's room, drawing office, manager's room, staff room, station engineers' room, a testing room, mains room, lavatory and bathroom. As can be seen in the photographs, the manager's and station engineers' rooms each had large windows overlooking the engine room and access via an iron platform and stairway. The offices and the engine hall occupied the southern section of the works facing south on to Millburn Street. This image is from an album of photographs held by Aberdeen City Libraries detailing the construction of the Dee Village Electricity Works between 1901 and 1903.
