This fascinating aerial photograph was taken by Aero Surveys Ltd. in 1972. It shows the Council’s administration building under construction. It also reveals the size of the old Town Hall on the corner of Wharf and Willow Streets.
Sandwiched between the two buildings was the town’s library, which opened in 1930. It was later demolished along with the Town Hall. It is also interesting to note the large number of wooden houses still occupying the area at this time.
