Historical information

The date is approximate.

Physical description

Black and white photo of a large eucalyptus tree which appears to have had its canopy pruned. A woman in a cloche hat, identified as Mrs Mabel Carter, is leaning against it as if reading. In the background is a paling fence, beyond which is a weatherboard house and (?) a later brick house. The area between the foreground and the paling fence is roughly grassed without a footpath. About 10 feet up the trunk of the tree a wooden sign can just be distinguished. This is the street sign for Everton Grove.
Norman and Mabel Carter lived at 21 Everton Grove.
Norman took many photos of Surrey Hills and Mont Albert from the 1920s, in particular of events and activities of the Church of England.
