Rockhampton Post Office, Rockhampton, Queensland, ca. 1910

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The Rockhampton Post Office, a two-storeyed rendered masonry structure with an arcaded sandstone facade and corrugated iron-hipped roof, is located on the western corner of East and Denham Streets, fronting the East Street mall to the northeast. The Post Office was originally constructed as separate postal and telegraph buildings linked together by means of a clock tower and an arcaded sandstone facade to both street frontages. The two buildings were separated by a laneway, above which the clock tower was located. This laneway has since been enclosed and now forms the central entrance to the building. The arcaded sandstone facade is punctuated by projecting balconies which are supported by columns at each corner flanking entrance steps. The balconies are located below the clock tower and centrally along both street frontages. The ground floor arcade comprises arches, with expressed keystones, separated by pilasters and surmounted by a deep entablature with triglyphs. The ground floor arcade has a raised base with a terrazzo floor with non-slip applied finishes. Steps are located below the projecting balconies and at the corner of East. The northeastern clock face has the words ANNO 1890 DOMINI (literally translated as 'in the year of our Lord 1890') in relief above, and TEMPVS FVGIT CITO PEDE (literally translated as 'Time flies on winged feet') in relief below. The tower is crowned by a cast iron cupola, which consists of a central dome, surmounted by a spire, with pediments supported by columns on four sides.

    The colour version has gained some fictitious birds !
  • Aussie~mobs said:
    Bob I am pleased you agree with me about them being added to this one.
  • Bob said:
    Excellent colour tinting. The best I've ever seen !!
  • Aussie~mobs said:
    Bob I guess it was difficult to do and perhaps they had limited colours to choose from but I find them a bit tacky, which I guess is unfair as I'm used to today's standards.
