Summary

[General description] Balfour Wauchope's new addition is a two storey brick building with windows that have been designed so that the top sections may be opened to provide fresh air. A horse feeding from a nose bag stands harnessed to a wagon next to the Franklin Street entrance. This factory site was used by Balfour's for about 100 years until manufacturing was moved to the suburbs in 2003. Note the large telegraph pole with a prop to provide stability.
