1 Some Historic Pics of Warwick and Stanthorpe Part 2 I m imagining the walk on Sundays from St Catharine s to St Mark s and the buildings we passed I may have some in the wrong order! There are several pics of the statue of Mr Byrnes. It was always fun to see if he had a pie or an empty bottle in his hand or a hat or beanie on his head..
