Description
"Parks Home Bakery was located on Route 1 in Dunstan near the Saco line. The restaurant and bakery were housed in a Quonset hut--one of the structures produced by the Navy during World War II in Quonset, Rhode Island, and sold as surplus after the war for about $1,000 each. The Quonset hut was removed long ago and a new building was erected on its site."
From Rodney Laughton's Book," Images of America, Scarborough in the Twentieth Century".
