East Hawthorn

East Hawthorn - Auburn and Burwood Rds

East Hawthorn - 1904 image.  Auburn and Burwood Rds. The chemist shop where I worked in the early 1950s is at the right, building still there but verandahs gone, now a boutique place. We lived directly opposite out of picture.

Balloch's Bakery Stables.  Heritage protected, 2019 view. Our place backed on to the rear, the car park at left was once a tennis court, I used to park my first car there in 1958. At that time it was used for horses.
