The year that needed no introduction 1916

 

If any introduction be needed, turn to the Australian War Memorial summary of what was coming up in 1916. 

  
 

Conscription was put to a plebiscite which was not carried but did get yes in 3 states. Gough Whitlam was born.

Hordern Stairs 1882

Officially Horderns Stairs, the 1934 Gregory's Street Directory of Sydney and Suburbs does not register their presence. Interestingly, the 1934 Gregory's does show the path to the stairs as Horderns Place, by which it is known today.

There may have been a shop under here at one time.  
 

 

It is a good stone wall. 

 

 

Look at the right edge, lower down, in the above photo. Here is a close up.
