Spencer's Brook Fire Shed
In 2005 the Spencers Brook Progress Association purchased a light tanker Fire Truck (Alpha D).
This Fire Truck is an important asset for fast attack fire response for any local fire in Spencers Brook as the Northam Fire Services are 11km away and Clackline/Muresk Fire Brigade 10km away. It is also used for fires outside of the locality.
The fire truck required a permanent home. The Spencers Brook Progress Association located a suitable piece of land which the Shire of Northam were able to exercise from the road reserve.
While waiting for the Fire Shed to be built a water saving garden was established.
The Shire also approved the construction of the fire shed. The Spencers Brook Progress Association then commence fundraising to build the Fire Shed. Building of the Fire Shed was donated by a builder and ex resident.
In 2010 electricity was connected to the Fire Shed. Both the Shire of Northam and Western Power provided grants that partly funded the connection. The remaining funds were raised by the Spencers Brook Progress Association.
In 2012 a concrete pad was installed next to the Fire Shed in Preparation of a future patio to be erected.
In 2022 the patio was eventually built funded by a grant of the Shire of Northam and Spencers Brook Progress Association funds. The Water tank was donated by Rainchaser Water Tanks Pty Ltd.
