DETAILS

TitleRiver Street, Petrie, 1896DescriptionMain road into North Pine (Petrie) via River Street, 1896. This photograph documents the beginnings of the North Pine township. The North Pine Courthouse is on the left. Just past the Courthouse is the small shop used by the saddler, James Connors. As Connors also assisted with the Court proceedings, the present street which runs past the Courthouse was named after him. On the high ground next to the North Pine Hotel is the building which originally housed Tom Petrie's hostelry and accommodation house. The North Pine Hotel was later moved further along River Street to the site of the present Petrie Hotel. The shop and residence to the right, which had been Archibald Hamilton's general store from 1882 until 1889, was then occupied by Thomas Henry Ware and his family. Ware was a butter churn and dairy utensil manufacturer and importer in North Pine from around 1892 until 1901. Further to the right can be seen part of the horse yards, dip and large sale yards which were established by Tom Petrie.
