24. View from the top of the chimney, looking south east. In the middle foreground is the wet pit excavation, with the NG track crossing it, the pipes from the pumps dewatering it discharging into the river. Foundation blocks  for the beaterfloor are to the right bottom corner. The natural river bank (though this was already a straightened navigation cut avoiding the meander around what became the island site) will be cut back to the wharf wall later to provide space for the lighters to discharge cargoes of pulp.
