Joinery Workshop Party 1990
Newspaper cutting from 1990 describing the events to celebrate the 70th birthday of joiner Sandy Rankine. The party took place in Sandy’s 191-years-old workshop at Woodhaven pier. Sandy’s great-grandfather William Buist started the joinery business here in 1875. Originally the building served as the pack-house for the Woodhaven ferry, where taxes and dues were paid for goods arriving or departing by boat. The article also mentions the addition to the Mars war memorial of names of Mars boys who died in World War II.
