  I think you're right that it's not right. Looks more like Thomas street or somewhere like that. Edit: Actually, the houses are all too tall for Thomas st.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  derangedlemur I think I (we) have seen that clock before.

• derangedlemur said:

  I don't remember it. Hannon Cycles isn't producing any useful leads, anyway.

• Sharon Corbet said:

  The building on the left looks really familiar to me. (Which probably means that it's long since torn down.)

Headstone of Sydney Barber Josiah Skertchly

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Josiah Skertchly had a varied career in geology and botany in Britain, the United States and Asia before migrating to Queensland in 1891. While Assistant Geologist with the Geological Survey of Great Britain he made ground-breaking discoveries on the antiquity of human existence in Britain. Later in Australia, he was probably the first successfully to apply stratigraphic principles to attempt to establish the age of Aboriginal occupation. In 1895 Skertchly became Assistant Government Geologist, Queensland Geological Survey. Alongside his professional duties, he immersed himself in the scientific life of Queensland, serving as President of the Royal Society of Queensland and the Queensland Naturalists' Club as its foundation. Skertchly lectured widely and wrote on natural history and science for the "Brisbane Courier" and other publications. Although not an optometrist, Skertchly was elected a member of the Institute of Ophthalmic Opticians of Queensland in its foundation year 1908. He played a prominent role in advocating for improved educational standards and professional practice as embodied in the Queensland Opticians Act of 1917. In 1927 Skertchly's archaeological collections were purchased by the Queensland Museum. Source: www.eoas.info/biogs/P000782b.htm
