Pitt Street in Sydney

  Open to correction by tramway experts - I think this is definitely Pitt Street looking south from about the Spring St corner. According to wikipedia, "Trams operated from Central station down Castlereagh Street to Circular Quay and back up Pitt Street in a large anti-clockwise loop.". Hence the single tramway line towards the left of the street. Not so sure about the "1900-1912" date. The City of Sydney website says that style of street light happened after 1912 - history.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/sydneystreets/Minding_the... Also the car ...

  Nice John. interesting to see that the car, probably a post WW1 unit by the look of it, is outnumbered by horse+cart. I'm leaning towards George Street but unsure.

  good shot!

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Good work there! And a good educated guess about the Wollondilly and Cox rivers. The Hawkesbury tends to have sand edges, not pebbles or rocks as seen here.

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] WooHoo! That must be very close.

  Hi-res map showing all the submerged settlements and old roads - might be of use ...

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Good find - the photos are spookily similar in composition. Kerry has dismantled that eye-catching crucifix.
