Past and Present
Contrast between early days of this century and the present is shown in these photographs.
The scene at the Post Office corner in days gone by showing wool wagons waiting in Customhouse Street to unload at W. &.K's. store. Old Post Office is at left, with the first Drill Hall behind it.
The same scene today, taken from the upstairs window of the Loan and Mercantile building. (Early photo from Mr. Ledger).
