HERITAGE LOST: Launceston's Woolstore

The Woolstore predemolition 2014
LETTER: The Examiner Wed March 17
I’VE been watching the Woolstore being demolished these last few days.
A perfectly sound structure, wonderfully attractive, full of Launceston’s economic history and heritage.
An act of pure barbaric vandalism.
Everyone involved should hang their heads.

— JIM DICKENSON, Launceston.
