Summary

South east corner of Pirie Street, Adelaide, and Ackland Street. The corner building, occupied by J.N. Perry, Draper and Grocer, was erected in 1870 (see the 'Register', January 3rd, 1871). The storekeeper stands in front of his shop, whilst local mothers and children pose for the photographer. The cottage next door, on the left, was unchanged in March, 1925, except for roof and verandah breastwork. The further two cottages were also unchanged as at March, 1925. The far side of these cottages is 19 yards east of Ackland Street. This view is part of a group which form a continuation: B2509, B2511, B2510 and B 2512 (in that order). All these buildings are shown on the Cadastral Survey plan. For a view of Perry's building after changes effected in 1925, see B 3429.
