Library Shop
Estate map showing allotments to be sold on 9th November, 1885 by Arthur Martin & Co., Auctioneers. The land was surveyed by Hamilton & Raff. The allotments were adjacent to Moreton Bay, and today this area covers Talburpin Park and streets surrounding the park - Torquay Road, Phillip Street, Junee Street to name just a few. Estate maps can give information about land subdivisions, including how the land was subdivided, when it was first auctioned, who the surveyors were and who sold the land. They are useful for investigating the history of urban land areas. They were also used as advertisements for land sales.
