You remember correctly.This was possibly the last police traffic position manned 24 hours per day every day in the U.K.They needed to direct traffic in accordance with rail traffic movements on the docks.I believe there was an electric heater in there.Must have still been unpleasant in winter nights.Can't remember when it was done away with.

I was told by a friend that there was also some beer and whiskey kept there as well! Purely medicinal, and to keep the Copper warm on those cold days and nights.
