Summary

Graves Street looking west, Exchange Hotel on the right and Ideal Picture Theatre on left. Kadina was founded to provide homes for miners at the nearby Wallaroo Copper Mine. The mines attracted many miners from Cornwall. The buildings in Kadina are colonial and federation style. The name Kadina was derived from the Narungga word Kadiyinya meaning Lizard Plain. The Ideal Picture Theatre was in operation from 1921. The (Royal) Exchange Hotel was in existence from 1861 and at the time of the photograph the proprietor was Gordon Hillier Jacob.
