Town Hall,
Port Louis
Unfortunately, the original print has been damaged and there
are no surviving negatives. The Town Hall has been replaced
by a modern, unattractive building.

Cavendish Bridge,
Mahebourg
Unfortunately, we did not locate this bridge during our stay
on the island. Built by the British in 1908, it spans the River
La Chaux at Mahebourg. The 2002 photograph is from
