Wanko Gravel Pit Critiqued for Council Oversight
A letter from A. Rilby defends the Wanko gravel pit once resumed at Stemide, noting 68 acres with four feet of gravel enough for four years for Railway Department and Town Council. He accuses a later Council of poor supervision and claims demurrage costs from 17 empty wagons, arguing the venture failed due to neglect rather than market factors.
