Relic of a Ruin

Germein Gorge, South Australia

The last time we drove through this gap in the hills there was a lot more of
these ruins... unfortunately the ravages of a bush-fire and vandals not much
is left of it now. I believe it is the ruins of a hotel that once serviced
the horse and cart age as wheat and other farm produce were carted on the way
to a port where it was loaded on ships. Details can be found in another
gallery, http://www.pbase.com/yvonneii/germein_gorge_and_ruins and the photos
in this gallery show the ruins as they were last time we drove through here.

A real shame Von, sadly too much vandalism and senseless destruction these days...BV

I suppose that as long as there is a record of what was here, the ruins might not have added that much
