Pastel postcard from the turn of century (?) showing the wharf, adjacent train station and buildings along Water Street. Note water tanks on southern skyline, presumably to supply factories there. With the boats, train and horse-drawn wagon this was an inter-modal hub.

Probably same original image as above but with different cropping and tinting. Top 20% of postcard trimmed off by CAW.

 History of hotels at WIndsor location. In 1815 the Sprigg House was built, and perhaps in 1885 was replaced with the St James which was later renamed the Hotel Windsor (top postcard), and the name remained after 1914 when the current building was erected.
