Rowntree's Cocoa - TWCMS:G11480

  This is patently not produced between 1914-1918. Look at the label - by appointment to the late King George V - he died in 1936 so this tin clearly dates post that event..

  Anyone know exactly where Alderson Street was? Possibly Surry Hills?

• dunedoo said:

  One can see the night soil lane, and how it would have been operated. Also there doesn't appear to be any greenery, except for that half dead tree in the middle of the pix.

• dunedoo said:

  beachcomber australia Found it, about 1/2 hour of searching. It was located at Redfern, on the eastern side of Redfern Park. It was located within the block surrounded by Elizabeth St, Kettle St, Walker St and Phillip St. Alderson Street ran north south, parallel to Elizabeth St. In that block was also Bilston St, which ran parallel and to the east of Alderson. The lane could very well be Bilston Street. Housing Commission flats occupy the site. It can be found in Gregorys reprint of their 1st edition Sydney Street Directory of 1934, which was reprinted in 2006, to celebrate their 70th edition.

  dunedoo Thanks! I wonder if the image had something to do with the earlier ones of that block? See -
