Estate map showing allotments for sale, in the Cracknel Road Estate in Annerley. The allotment sale covered parts of Cracknel Road, Downes Street, Gillmore Street, Kenneth Street, Kivas Street, Laura Street and Esther Street. Year 1924.
The suburb was named after the township of Annerley in the County of Surrey by the Hon. Digby Denham, an early Queensland premier.
It was originally known as Stephens Shire after Thomas Blacket Stephens. The Soden family were early settlers in the area and ran a bus service between Annerley and Brisbane.
Estate maps can give information about land subdivisions, including how the land was subdivided, when it was first auctioned, who the surveyors were and who sold the land. They are useful for investigating the history of urban land areas. They were also used as advertisements for land sales.
Print details
37cm x 59cm approx. Prints are created using archival pigment inks on A2 size 200 gsm archival photo paper with a matte finish.
We leave a small white border of 10-15mm around the image area to protect it during shipping, to avoid fingerprints while being handled, and to allow for framing (prints do not come framed).
Prints will be carefully rolled and mailed in a protective tube.
Aside from a small selection in-store, all prints are print on demand. Please allow up to 48 hours for production.
