Was that for Garlicks, I recall the did all the maintenance /Construction,?
Although it's possible a bigger contractor may have been required.

I sat in the box's at the bottom of the main stand on several occasions......terrible view. Weren't they replaced with a new corporate area that was built at the back of the main stand when the roof was modified. Time has taken its toll i'm afraid. Could be the "pre- fab" exec boxes may just have been an extra income source?
