PHOTOGRAPH; Ridgway Street from St Hill Street
|
| Brief Description |
One of a collection of black and white photographs of buildings and streets in Whanganui, this print is of Ridgway Street from St Hill Street.
What did Whanganui folk do in their leisure time? If we look at the number of hotels operating in the town, drinking seems to be one answer. The Provincial Hotel down the road was built in the 1890s and was still a famous watering hole a century later.
