Last month, a group of residents watched as a bulldozer demolished a Toowong house, Linden Lea, which originally belonged to the family that created Webster’s Biscuits and gave Brisbane its Shingle Inn tearooms.
They had put in an application to protect the home, but it was too late for the largely part-time Queensland Heritage Council to consider.
Toowong residents John Scott and Freya Robertson express their concerns as bulldozers remove Linden Lea at Toowong.
