Full Description

{1} The Super Sausage Café on the corner of Spencer Bridge Road and St Andrews Road has design components which suggest that this brick-built building may have functioned as WWII era first aid post. The design of the latter is as featured in The War Office Protection Against Gas and Air Raids Pamphlet No 3 Passive Air Defence (1939 provisional). Armishaw notes the use of twin entrances with single exit layout as typical of such posts; photos.
