Soon to be covered

with 500 or so houses.

 

Moving day

 Two of these buildings were trucked past our house yesterday 

The house next door

 is on the market.

Demolition of an old treasure.

I believe this part was added to the main
 house when it became a rest home.

the little boys watching enjoyed this as did the big boys

I wish I had got a photo of the building before they started

 the demolition. It was built in the 1880's and was quite a grand old house. Some of the windows were saved as was the grand staircase and I hope the wrought iron work along the verandah was as well.

Since 1959 it has been operating as a rest home run by a Christian Trust. Yesterday, sad to say, the building was demolished.
