Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Pubs of Australia, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection As beachcomberaustralia noted, this is one of John Degotardi Jr.'s "Plague Album" photos, so it can be dated to 1900.

pellethepoet good spotting - I was waiting for those (4) houses to show up in a photo. They look so lonely and unloved in the Google view.

Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Thanks for posting this. It is a wonderful forgotten corner of 'Old Sydney', obliterated for the Sydney Harbour Bridge southern approach. GoogleMapsStreetView - maps.google.com.au/maps?q=Sydney+NSW&hl=en&ll=-33...

pellethepoet The building called "Catholic Presbytery" on your map is of great interest. It is 'Cumberland Place' (not to be confused with the alleyway of the same name!) and best known as the home of Dr James Mitchell. Built by Francis Greenway in 1825; demolished c.1912. More info, photos and famous paintings of the property - collection.hht.net.au/firsthhtpictures/fullRecordPicture.... acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=430971# acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=412822#

beachcomber australia Brilliant! David Scott Mitchell's (of Mitchell Library fame) childhood home. He lived there until 1871 when his mother died.
