| To EJJ. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}; 43269 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/KW.2.1.35. Shardlow Garage. A further examination of the Shardlow Garage revealed the following defects :- (1) The drains still smell; these will have to be blocked up. (2) In addition to the existing rack in the Stores, we require a small rack for seat cushions such as the one we have at present in the Experimental Garage. (3) We should like a Yale lock for the office door. (4) We should like a tray, similar to the one at present in use in the Experimental Garage, for washing purposes, and also a pint, quart, half gallon and one gallon measure. (5) We should like some millboard to cover the concrete of the office floor. (6) The lifting tackle we have already mentioned to you. This of course requires a beam between the two existing beams, as discussed with you. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
