Keeper here is a quoted post from Gulliver that explains what the buildings were and when they were demolished, it is in the Canon Murphy discussion dated 2nd December 2012.
"McDonalds Ironmongers (Thomas & Mortimer) was on the corner of Marine Rd/Georges St until after 1935, and the wall of McDonalds facing Marine Rd was a plain wall. I have old pics, which appear to show the railings of the church extending along the side of McDonalds. That seems to match with this pic. Having said that, the railings appear to run very far down Marine Rd at the other end???
McDonalds was demolished before 1940 but sometime after 1935
The various vehicles certainly appear to be from the 1930s"Not all those who wander are lost" (J.R.R.Tolkien)
