All about the Sydney suburb of Newtown.
Australia St, on corner next to the outboard engine place?
Brown street, lower end just down from the mechanic?
Linthorpe Lane
Linthorpe Lane it is - well done !
Yay!And quite an appropriate sign it is too, it's a mighty small lane. I wonder what its history is?
Indeed. It also serves as access to the Mayor's garage - and really should be one-way; especially the angled bit that joins Linthorpe Street.There's a little bit of information here:http://www.sydneyarchives.info/l
Also check out the old map here which shows it didn't exist in 1890, and only partially existed in 1895.Active link for street history here
