Compare the pre-barrage photo from the same location taken in 2006 Image With renovation of the former Toffee Factory Image, the ruined warehouse building in the foreground, on the west bank of the Ouseburn, was demolished. It could have been used to store hay and feedstocks brought in by boat for the nearby Cattle Sanatorium http://www.twsitelines.info/Siteline.nsf/SMR/2068121C1B40460B802576AF003E6B5B The building was recorded in 2008 prior to demolition http://www.twsitelines.info/siteline.nsf/SMR/B1801004CB83B345802576AF003EB928
