This view has changed very little in 97 years. April 2, 1926, two weeks before Her late majesty Queen Elizabeth was born on April 21.

Except the once architecturally wonderful mill building is now extensively vandalised, and also a fire-ridden shell of what it once was. Hopefully what remains of the shell can be salvaged.
