Skink74 Spot on - we can just see the street sign for Edward Street at extreme right. Thank you!

Interesting to see all the hoists on the warehouses, like you still see in the Netherlands and the north of Germany today.

You've lots of business names. They should help date it once the experts get here.

Godfrey Bridge: Type: Swing, Built: c.1865, Construction: iron, wood, Power: Manual, Use: Road www.movablebridges.org.uk/BridgePage.asp?BridgeNumber=1087

"This image depicts Geldmacher's Mill [in] Nimmitabel. Nimmitabel is a small rural [village], located south of Cooma in New South Wales."[1]

The windmill was built in 1865. Also known as Nimity Belle. About 1840 the locals started calling the village Nimoitebool. On Townsends map in 1845 as Nimmitabel.[2]  Also Nimmitybelle, Nimithybale and Nimitybell. Nimmitabel means, "the place where many waters start and divide".[3]

"This old flour mill (1865-72) was built almost single-handedly by a German settler named John Geldmacher who also owned a store and other town allotments. He initially fitted sails but these were not permitted so close to a road where they tended to frighten horses. Thus he used horses to drive the mill which was not a great success. It was later a timber mill and is one of two such mills left in eastern Australia."[4]

trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/164340808/16759785 - this pic appeared in the Sydney Mail on 20th July, 1910...in an article titled 'Old Mills of New South Wales'...this is the first publication that I've found so far...

An oily river - not surprising given the amount ofindustry on it at that time.

From wikipedia: "Thomas P. Keenan, composer of such songs as "The Boys From The County Armagh", is buried in this village. According to Fáilte Ireland, his song "The Old Rustic Bridge by the Mill" takes its name from a structure in Castletownroche near a mill currently under reconstruction" www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqF7H-ymXYw There was also a woollen mill at Castletownroche: "New season's clip. Highest prices paid for all classes of wool" (Cork Examiner - Monday 23 May 1904)

Here is the view from the bridge.

The NIAH claims approx. 1890 for the footbridge which is seen in the streetview. (But sometimes they use the Lawrence collection as a basis for dates) The bridge and the mill are also at the NIAH.

In the companion plate. Two men with bikes one has drop handle bars. Who is the bike historian here to date it? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000319186
