Looking south down the flooded sideroad, this image shows the damage caused to the office and the company homes. John Downing’s family home (later the Beachville Museum) is to the top right of the picture. The flooded pits and damaged kilns of the Gypsum Lime and Alabastine company were north of this scene.
