    Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Are these the gasworks on the Barangaroo site?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    John Cowper Yes, I think so - still causing pollution problems 140+ years later.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    The six-house terrace called 'Harbour View Terrace' built 1870 is NOT here, implying the photo is before 1870.

    This is almost certainly the photograph by John Degotardi senior exhibited at the 1866 Intercolonial Exhibition in Melbourne, and described on the State Library of Victoria catalogue as follows - "Includes the Gasworks chimney bearing a plaque reading 'GASWORKS 1840' and a gasometer made of iron in the foreground. Balmain can be seen across the water."

    Gas Light Company's Head Station on the Eastern Shore of Darling Harbour / the back ground shewing portions of the Town of Balmain. / Sydney. N.S.Wales. 1866.
