These two original buildings part of the former 'locomotive repairing works' complex, located to the north east of the Goods Shed, on what is now Hood Road, Barry, featured in many views of locos at Dai Woodham's scrapyard. Locos coming into the yard from the main line, that runs beyond the building, ran in front of them from the left to enter the reception sidings for the yard, which was located to far rear of view. A new Premier Inn is now sited to the right of view on part of the area where many lines serving the extensive dock network ran, with Ffordd Y Mileniwm running in from Cadoxton now built on the solum of these lines.
