Erskineville, bench

This mosaic covered bench is located along Erskineville Road, outside the former town hall, in the inner city suburb of Erskineville. It features memories of the industrial and commercial history of the area such as the Eveleigh Railway Workshops, Metters Steel factory, Goodsell's Brickyards and the Rose of Australia Hotel.

  7. I've been thinking about the effort historians make to assure that future generations will understand something of their heritage. This art is wonderful.. beautiful, functional and looks like it will stand the test of time too.
