    I've tried a search but it didn't show anything. Maybe someone can help.

    Anyone know what happened to the 'Tiled Mural' that was on the wall of the 'old' Shakespeare pub in Williamson Sq?

    It was a scene from Merchant of Venice, where Portia is challenging Shylock to take his pound of flesh without spilling a drop of blood of Antonio.

    Cheers Ged. It's just that the brickwork and door location looked similar to the one in Zappa's pic earlier in the thread

    Thanks for that GD.
    Anyone know if the building was originally built for business use or was it residential.
    While I'm being nosey, what's the story with the fancy building with the balconies

    The buildings with the balconies was a proto type made at Cobbs Quarry in 1901-3 and transported down prefabricated (the first in the country) under the charge of John Alexander Brodie. I think there's a thread on them on here somewhere.
