Description: Photo of Chapel Street in front of the Town Hall, looking south. To the south are visible: the Victoria Tobacco Company at No. 255 (adjacent to the laneway separating it from the town hall), then Conways building, with signage for four of the occupants: Conway's Boot Store, D. Cameron's ladies wear shop, Edments, and Mrs C. Huntsman, miliner. To the north of the town hall is the Royal George Hotel, then signage for several businesses, including A. Allison's Billiards Salon (No. 259), the Palms (?) tea rooms (possibly J. Karran's business), then G.J. Coles and Co. at No. 261. The electric tram pictured is significant as the City had only recently converted from cable trams.
