  Fuzzy (Paul) Martin has sent a couple photos, post-demolition.

After 151 years, all the inspiration, effort and engagement is over.

Thanks, Fuzzy.


There it was - Gone!


And  a final video look-around from Fuzzy with some exchanged email text.



Early January 2025.
 
Our exchanged email content reads as:

myself to Fuzzy:

Jules Edgecombe replied sayin' it made him feel sad. I felt the same.
But it was there for us, mate.
At the end of the day it did so well what there isn't much of now.

It gave a lot of employment to unskilled workers, of which I was one.
