Half of the summit building has now been demolished. The cafe is levelled to the floor leaving the section that once provided the kitchen and accommodation facilities standing. Unpleasant is one way of describing the conditions on top today with a cold wind driving a pervasive thick drenching mist against everything. Perhaps explaining why the generator packed in.


The old cafe now has an alfresco feel to it.

The lagging in the walls has to be kept separate from the rubble meaning painstaking removal by hand and packing it into bags. Another laborious job looms on the horizon with the discovery that the remaining roof has a double layer of tiles, insulation and bitumen.


Bagging the insulation out of the walls.


The end of the platform where the entrance to the building used to stand.
