The Glasgow Estate 1884 - Footscray, Seddon and Yarraville
Glasgow Estate (Footscray) from the 1884
The Glasgow Estate Footscray Heritage Map, from approximately 1884. Once under the hammer, land was sold for £2 per foot and by 1888 was largely sold out and classified as a local estate sale benchmark of success.
Originally known as Belgravia, Seddon was officially declared a suburb in 1906. Named after Richard Seddon, the once New Zealand Prime Minister from 1893 to 1906, who resided there with his wife before he moved to Bendigo and later to New Zealand chasing gold wealth during the gold boom. His wife was the Daughter of John Stewart Spottiswoode, in which Spotswood is derived from.
This huge historical estate map includes: Gamon Street, Tongue Street, William Street (now Barnet Street), Mackay Street, Somerville Road, Railway Place (now Pentland Parade, Bellairs Avenue), Princess Street, Berry Street, Fairlie Street, Stephen Street, Nicholson Street, Hyde Street.
A beautiful historic talking point for any home that loves our inner west area.
