Just from the photos, I agree with Peter. Certainly not a Magpie (sticks are too thick) or WTE (much too small). It looks more like a part fallen down nest of a Little Eagle or maybe Whistling Kite or maybe Brown Goshawk.

Hi Pam,  I checked the nest out today.  It is much too small for WTEs. Possibly a smaller raptor or raven.
 
Cheers  Peter
