    3. Hi Ray, I'm wondering ??? if the building to the left [ http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an8329629 ] may be a depiction of Green's Flour Mill, built in the 1840's and later owned/operated by Pierce and Crofton ? The following article, Explosion at West Maitland, c. 1855, describes the location of the mill as being ... "situated in the road on the left after crossing the long bridge from Maitland, and has been erected about ten years" http://newspapers.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/4807375?searchTerm=%22explosion+at+west+maitland%22 Perhaps someone else may know more about this mill. Cheers, Diane Hills District Nth West Sydney
