Summary

View of Mount Breckan, taken by amateur photographer O.B.Hutchinson in 1894 and enclosed in letter to his uncle Peter Orlando Hutchinson, of Sidmouth, Devon. The letter accompanying is dated 30 April 1894. On the back of the original Hutchinson has written "View on the road about half a mile from Port Victor. The railway from Adelaide and the main road are here running side by side. The building close to the road is Mr Hay's Lodge, and the entrance gate alongside. Mr Hay's house is on the hill and, as will be seen, is rather a pretentious structure, containing about 22 rooms. Behind a telegraph pole is my pony-cart and my mare 'Bella'. This road is about 100 yards from the sea."
