Daceyville house, 1913 - rent 18s 6D

    There are now many examples in Sydney where one "semi" has "gone up". The results are rarely attractive. I never realised that in Daceyville they were designed that way from the start!

    There's some useful photographs of Daceyville at State Records NSW on Flickr here: www.flickr.com/photos/state-records-nsw/sets/721576217759...

    They are the shops at the Gardeners Rd roundabout number 369 Anzac Pde (formerly Randwick Rd). Note the elbow in the road is actually caused by the crease in the photo, it's mostly straight. To the left is the intersection with Gardeners Rd turning right and Bunnerong Rd continuing straight ahead. Anzac Pde actually veers left out of view. The small building at left centre still stands in the park on Bunnerong Rd.

    Presumably the hopper wagons were pushed by hand. It must have been difficult to build roads suitable for heavy carts on such sandy ground.

    Probably hauled by horses. A small petrol locomotive may have been tried out in 1920.
