I think Afternoon Tea is "1s" for shilling (5 cents).
" The Palace Hotel, believed to have been designed by the architect John Kirkpatrick, was built in about 1886 alongside the Watsons Bay wharf. The first proprietor of the hotel was Thomas Strange, formerly of the Greenwich Pier Hotel (now Dunbar House) also at Watsons Bay. The Palace Hotel was demolished to make way for the Watsons Bay Hotel, designed by architects Scott, Green and Scott, and built in 1937. "

Back when this picture was taken it was cheap as chips to buy property around Vaucluse and Watson's Bay. It was not considered the elite neighbourhood it is today.
