Henry Stuart's Great Western Store, Hill End

1872
Glass photonegative

Henry Stuart’s store still stands in Hill End at the intersection of Tambaroora and Havilah streets, although it doesn’t sell the extraordinary range of domestic and mining goods shown here. Stuart was also a director of several mines on Hawkins Hill. The crude building to the left is the new post office extension, built in 1872.
