DescriptionIn the centre of the street, towards the back of the photo, is the Blackall Memorial. Governor Blackall was the second Governor of Queensland from 1868-1871. The memorial was originally a drinking fountain, built in 1879, and was moved to the corner of Outridge Street and Chelmsford Avenue, Denmark Hill, in 1927, due to increased traffic around Nicholas and Brisbane Streets. On the right-hand side of the road is the North Australian Hotel, at number 1 Nicholas Street. The building was built 1849-1850 and was originally known as the Clare Castle Hotel, and was demolished in the early 1980s to make way for the refurbishment of Nicholas Street as the Ipswich City Mall. Beside the North Australian Hotel was the Fire Brigade building.(M. Rush) (Damaged glass plate)
