Wolverton is a heritage-listed detached house at 95 Stagpole Street, West End, City of Townsville, Wolverton, a single-storeyed, decorative timber residence, was constructed c. 1903 for Thomas Turton, a well known Townsville painter and decorator. The architect and builder are unknown. Thomas and Emily Turton resided at Wolverton until c. 1916, after which the house appears to have been rented out. Title was transferred from Mrs Turton in 1925, and the property passed through a variety of owners and lessees in subsequent years. It is understood the house was moved sideways in the 1930s to create a vacant adjacent block and in the 1950s it was divided into two flats. In the 1980s Wolverton was restored to its pre-1950 appearance. Wolverton is a modest, single-storeyed timber residence, high set on concrete stumps, surrounded by a modern tropical garden of ferns, palms, shade trees and lawn. A semi-circular driveway is a feature of the front yard together with the original concrete fence foundation and posts.[1] The building has a complex hipped and gabled roof. There are two small symmetrically placed gables at the front of the house and a gabled frontispiece which extends through the front verandah. A large square ventilator is centrally placed on the ridge of the corrugated iron roof. The verandah, with dowel balustrading and lattice screening, extends around three sides of the building. The front porch is decorated with simple fretwork and a wooden arch over the front steps. The single-skin timber external walls have exposed framing. Boards have also been used throughout the house on the internal walls and ceilings. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolverton,_West_End

One of the first motor hearses was built in Queensland by John Hislop in Brisbane, ca, 1910, and another one was built in 1916. This one in the photo is from 1916. Source: m.facebook.com/Lost.Brisbane/photos/a.244573318987110/339...

If this were new, I'd say it was a test shot before the portrait-sitter arrived. But I've seen how long it take to make these, and I can't imagine why anyone would make a test shot!

I feel the unique touch for this parlor through my screen.
