The Rocks, Hickson Road (Theme Day: Street Lamps)

This street lamp is located along Hickson Road at The Rocks. This style of elegant lamps was commissioned by the Sydney Department of Public Works for the historic Rocks precinct. These buildings along this street are redeveloped former warehouses, including the Australian Steamship Navigation Company building.
