An early photograph of Abel Smith Street looking towards Mt Victoria. A wooden footpath runs up the left side of the street; an entranceway in the lower-left of the image is likely to be a side street noted in Thomas Ward's 1892 map simply as "The Avenue" (now known as Inverlochy Place).
A horse-drawn cart and a gas lamp are on the opposite side of the street.
