1. The History
See earlier report HERE.

2. The Explore
This was just a casual reccie to see what was left of this extensive spar mill. In the end, having taken a number of reasonably interesting pics of what remained, I thought I’d do an update report. Most of the mill has now been demoed. Almost everything to the west of the access road, where the main process when on, has now gone. To the east, the buildings which were used for storage and loading remain largely intact and appear to have found a new use by the incumbent business that remain.

3. The Pictures

Forgot to look in here last time!

Not too much inside:

This bit was the first to get dismantled. Then the dismantlers stopped half way through.

Another slightly larger hut that remains:

The buildings to the east of the access road are still complete and being used for a new purpose:

The main side to the west hasn’t fared so well:

Up the stairs:

Bizarrely, this office remains intact:

Back outside, these look like some kind of tumbler/crushers earmarked for salvage:

What a load of old balls!

I really thought this was going to be around for a while, I can't believe its been demolished so fast

Wonder if those buildings had any age to them?
