I took this with an eye on the future knowing that the scene would change with the building of the cross-harbour road and railway http://www.geograph.org.uk/snippet/5008. The red building (middle/right) was Thompson’s feed mill Image The road and railway now pass through its site. Tomb Street sorting office Image (middle/left) was later the subject of a major recladding. The “Obel” Image now occupies the site (right) of the ferry terminal http://www.geograph.org.uk/snippet/3872 where work is now underway on the construction of a new office block. The Custom House (left) remains, unchanged. For comparison see Image
