Old building commemoration stones.  by johnfalconer

Old building commemoration stones.

SOOC.
Opposite modern buildings near the botanical gardens is a grassy hill which has the commemorative stones of a lot of buildings which seem to have been built in the 1920s!
I’ve lived in Sydney off and on forever but I’ve never seen this weird memorial to the olde buildings.
thats different - they look ancient

They must have looked great with all that old architecture, all they needed was a good clean. A lot better than those slab sided things they put up now.

Thanks for the much appreciated comments. I quite like the photo so I might go back without the group and do some stones.
