Vale Scrivener Building

A week or so ago (late July 2021) an email circulated that said that the Scrivener Building in Fern Hill Park, Belconnen, was to be demolished.

On 8 August 2021, Russell Wenholz advised that a friend sent me the picture above (taken a few weeks ago) of where the Scrivener Building used to be. I could  not recognise anything……..

……..I checked it out at the weekend - now a NO ENTRY construction site. I took the photo above in which I could recognise the kerb at the entry off Thynne Street to the smalll circle [Dunlop Court] that gave access to  the Scrivener Building - that's all that remains. It would be about 30 years old.
