    Ha! I have been waiting for this photo to turn up. Which part of "Kent Street, The Rocks" was ever bent?. (Reminds me of an unrepeatable old limerick).

    beachcomber australia Right you are - it never did! Thanks to the other photo we've been working on - www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2362655413/ - the "Oak" fragment is clearly identifiable as the Royal Oak on Miller's Road, Millers Point. Serendipity!

    Same section of road as depicted here, where "Miller's Rd curves from Kent St to Moore's Rd"

    Hmm Hickson road is too straight and Kent street is too bent

    pellethepoet Thanks, I hoped you might know about this. It is not easy to identify no-longer-existing streets from 120 year-old photos and maps. Serendipity indeed.
