Between 1880 (Colonial Secretary's Office completed) and 1895 (dome added). These were the houses whose view was ruined by the Garden Palace (1879-82).

They are a fine set of balconies . Reverse view by Henry King -

What a wonderful row of terraces....each one different and charming in it's own way.

This is the image I was thinking of - how would you like this built in your front yard? - 1879 - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/album/ItemViewer.aspx?itemid=846071&am... (from the excellent Mullins album, SLNSW - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=836375 )

One of these houses is still there, but I can't work out which it is - HELP! - GoogleMapsStreetView - maps.google.com.au/maps?q=Macquarie+St,+Sydney+NSW&hl...

The Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough had their own Flying Club who built this little aircraft in 1922-23. It was underpowered and rebuilt with a new engine and strutted undercarriage. It took part in the Lympne races between 1-3 Aug 1925 reg G-EBHS with also Parnall Pixie II (note spelling) G-EBKM present. Also note the name of the aircraft was spelled Hurricane. Stig

Looks like Newcastle, with the original Fred Ash hardware business centre left, and Nobby's in the background.

jrg_from_oz Looks like this Moment in Time may be easier than first thought... AB

Definitely Newcastle, Royal Newcastle Hospital in the centre right third of the photo. Fort Scratchley in the left centre. Nobby's would be further to the left. Royal Newcastle Hospital at a later date here flic.kr/p/9QQYhk LMDHS

Lake Macquarie Ah, so that's the hospital that now looks dwarfed by the apartment block beside it? AB

Newcastle for sure (foreshore?). But when? And where was the photographer standing? Trying to get relative dates from buildings which are or are not there. Waratah Terraces (see note) is still there (minus one at right) and surrounded by later buildings. Google Street View maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=...
