There are two penstocks here to control the flow of sewage and to shut back the sea if necessary. The penstocks are raised and lowered by these two hydraulic cylinders. Here we see the masons' sheds and the construction of the small valve house which protects the workings. It was built with Rubislaw granite with Kemnay granite facings.
