Postcard (Item) - Black and white postcard, Rose Stereograph Company, BUXTON HOTEL, BUXTON, VIC, 1913-1967
A black and white postcard of the Buxton Hotel in Buxton. The Buxton Hotel was built by William Burchall, probably in the late 1870s. The first owner, who also had land locally, was Frederick Nichols (1833-1904). The Buxton Hotel is located directly opposite the General Store. It was fronted with two huge oak trees and bordered and backed by large pine trees. It was a weatherboard structure with a painted corrugated iron roof. Old split wood shingles were covered by corrugated iron, which overlaid the shingles to make the roof watertight. The wooden shingles date back to the 1850s. This postcard was produced by the Rose Stereograph Company as a souvenir of Buxton.A black and white postcard of the Buxton Hotel in Buxton.THE ROSE SERIES P. 10274/ COPYRIGHT BUXTON HOTEL, BUXTON, VIC.buxton, victoria, australia, buxton hotel, rose stereograph company, rose series, p. 10274, postcard, souvenir, william burchall, frederick nichols -
