This large shopping complex has surrounded and incorporated the former Home Mills that were founded in 1769 by Samuel Salter and Company Limited. There is a 19th century brick block built in 1862 and in use until 1982 but it is very difficult to obtain meaningful views. This frontage is the former offices with the date of 1769.
