This is the junction of Lutton Place and St Leonard's Street. OS 1893 confirms house and staircase. Castle o Clouts can be seen on the right edge of the photograph.

The brick wall showing the outline of a bricked up door on the left edge of the photograph is still there today, as is the stone wall which is hidden behind the wooden fence. The building showing above would have extended over today's pavement. Fascinating these clues are still with us today especially the brick wall!

Crows Nest, established on Dalla tribal lands, was declared a town in 1876.[5] Crows Nest Post Office opened on 1 July 1878.[6] A branch railway line from Toowoomba, which serviced a number of sawmills and a dairying district, was finished in 1886.[5] In December 1880 the Primitive Methodist Church purchased 1.5 acres (0.61 ha) of land for a church.[7] The church opened on Good Friday on 15 April 1881.[8][9] On 31 December 1905, a new Crows Nest Methodist Church was opened; it replaced the old church.[10] In 1956 the church was remodeled. After the Methodist Church amalgamated into the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977, it became the Crows Nest District Uniting Church.[11] Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crows_Nest,_Queensland

Now a gap site with a bus stop. The building with confectioner marked, at the left edge of the photograph is still there - although the confectioners has been turned into a house. Houses in the background - rear of Parkside Street.
