Ponsandane Goods Depot
Penzance

Can anyone help with inside information or photographs taken inside of this building which would be much appreciated by Mr Ian Parker.
​Back in the early 1970's I did a survey of all the buildings,and now I've retired, i started back on my project, but at the time I was unable to see inside the goods shed, do any of your members have any details of the interior layout, I know there were some overhead electric cranes, I do have details of the offices, but not the main shed.

Many thanks in advance

N.B. Nancemeer  is a new location to us - its about 600 yards east of the east end of Buckshead  tunnel and 2000 yards west of Truro station. A nice location - in a new housing estate.
Many thanks Trevor
