Photograph, Starkie fountain
The Starkie drinking fountain was erected to commemorate the work done by Joseph Starkie to formation of the Sunbury Waterworks Trust in 1905. This later led to the establishment of a water supply system in Sunbury. Originally the fountain was at the intersection of O'Shanassy and Brook Streets. As the shopping centre expanded, the fountain was moved to a reserve in the Village Green. The establishment of a town water supply system in Sunbury in the early years of the nineteenth century was quite an achievement.A coloured photograph of a drinking fountain set in a grassed area. Parked cars can be seen in the background.sunbury waterworks trust, joseph starkie -

The Sphinx was a magazine of Durham University students published between 1905-1922, except for the period between July 1914 and the end of 1918.

Contents consist of pages of cartoons, printed on only one side of the paper, being a collection of satirical cartoons.durham university, cartoons -
