Well done to all! Very interesting content with excellent documents, photos, videos and narration.

Fascinated by Thomastown. However, photographs of it before it's ruin, are vanishingly rare. I've never seen the interior. Has anyone seen any?

[@tippfilms]

It's an amazing place to walk around! The photos are indeed hard to come by, I was thrilled to get a copy of the 8mm footage.

[@scumskimmer]

@@tippfilms yes, and your photo of the road gates from 1914: I'd never seen that before.

@@scumskimmer we're thinking to take sections of that unedited footage and post it here for people to look at, so hopefully I can get that through the pipeline sooner than later.
