Perseverance & Care
It was on a visit to Buttenshaw Park in the Blue Mountains where I came across two curious sandstone pillars at the entrance. It turns out the pillars are gateposts and the lasting remanents of 'Moorecourt', residence of Charles Moore. Mayor of Sydney between 1867 and 1869, Charles Moore held a number of local government & NSW legislative positions. Moore St (now Martin Place) and Moore Park were named after him having facilitated their development and he laid the foundation stone of Sydney Town Hall.
