I just love these old traditional houses, with it’s associated architecture and you generally don’t see many buildings constructed like this anymore.

Nice to see this picture. My GG-grandfather owned, I think, #10 Auckland Tce, just up the street. He sold it when he and his family emigrated to Australia in about 1853.
I really enjoy your photos!
