InformationFlickr Commenthighplains68: This is actually the former railway goods shed, not a workshop. The next image also shows the building from the opposite side together with a crane for goods handling which were once common features where freight was handled at stations. Thanks for posting these photos, there are some very interesting images. UON Library,University of Newcastle, Australia: Thanks very much, highplains68. Glad you're enjoying the photos. I've put the caption in square brackets to indicate uncertainty/inaccuracy but left it there because this was the caption in the actual thesis. I have, however, changed the tag.
