  The Saw Mill is on the 25", and the ruins are visible on the Google map aerial view: maps.app.goo.gl/mPhRzjX4fWbRKjDK7

  As a teenager I worked for a builder in his workshop and occasionally was given the job of taking circular or bandsaw blades to McMahon's timber yard. There I would hand the saw over to a skilled Sawyer who would tune and sharpen it. That was skilled work where the teeth were adjusted by bending the them alternately left and right and then carefully filing the cutting face. I wasn't supposed to linger but I was fascinated with the skill and application of those men.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Here in the 1911 census are Thomas Mortimer, Timber Merchant and boss of the Mill, and his family. Also guest Joshua Elliot, who would later marry daughter Edith and run the mill.

  Mason has another shot in the archive titled Mill and Boyne River, but it is the Blackwater unless I have the wrong Mill.

  That's some number of DUT trams in O'Connell Street - and I cannot make out a bus. The banner strung across Talbot St is for the "Annual Excursion to Warrenpoint" - such trips were quite the thing and good business for the GNR(I).

• beachcomber australia said:

  A wild guess - the missing top left photo was a landscape aspect looking north up O'Connell Street. Or not ?

  mikeyashworth The lack of buses suggests 1930s, rather than later
