197. All that is left is a big pile of rubble. On the spot where Brooksbank Centre stood. Taken from the thicket. (17/SEP/2013)



198. These huge cut rocks were the foundations of Brooksbank Centre, which is odd because it was only a one story building - Mary Burnie House did not have such heavy duty foundations. Taken from the thicket. (17/SEP/2013)



199. The pile of rubble is about one story high. The next job is to break it down into smaller rubble to be taken away. Taken from the thicket. (17/SEP/2013)
