Sydney's Inner West
View allAll Photos Tagged glebe
I really like visiting this place and I've been here a few times over the years. I took the drone to get a better (higher) perspective. As you can see it was one of those lovely sunny Winter days after a hard frost the night before. I also made a short video clip which came out pretty nice.
There are actually 4 circles within a few hundred metres of each other but this is the nicest in my opinion. Apparently Oscar Wilde's father (Sir William Robert Wills Wilde FRCSI (March 1815 – 19 April 1876) lived nearby here for 13 years. He had a strong interest in archeology and folklore and was also fascinated by the circles. I wonder was this one his favorite too?
So for this image we have arrived at Glebe, an inner-city suburb of Sydney, bordering on Rozelle Bay and Blackwattle Bay. Glebe is home to many cool cafes!!!
This photograph was taken along the Glebe Harbourside Walk, with its views across Rozelle Bay to the ANZAC bridge.
This 'strange object' appeared along the walkway. A blast from the past I suspect, but I am not sure of its origin.
BUT, thanks to Ross Walker, www.flickr.com/photos/ross_v_walker/ who diligently researched this, here is the history of this 'winch':

Glebe Gardens is a magical place. Not only does it have everything a person needs to design their garden paradise, but its own garden setting is a place for families to wander in and enjoy. It is also a popular setting for wedding photos.
Glebe Gardens - Launceston, Tasmania.
Ficus rubiginosa, the rusty fig or Port Jackson fig (damun in the Dharug language), is a species of flowering plant native to eastern Australia in the genus Ficus. It is used as a shade tree in parks and public spaces, and when potted is well-suited for use as an indoor plant or in bonsai.
I lay on the ground to take this shot; such things were possible back in 2008. These trees are beautiful, but I wouldn't want a potted one in my sitting room; my house is much too small.
African drummers adding excitement to the streets of Sydney. Gosh they were good!

Kilmartin Glen
Looking down from Kilmartin village onto 'probably' the most northerly cairn of the largely bronze age linear cemetery.
Two concentric stone circles were found within the cairn along with two burial cists - so the original may have been closer to Temple Wood in appearance ?
At the Inclosure of Corley Moor in the early 19th century, the Glebe land with Allesley benefice received an allotment; this was a field on a corner of which the Mission Church now stands.
William Bree, Allesley Rector 1808 – 1822 exchanged some of his own land along Staircase Lane and Church Walk for three Glebe fields, including the Glebe Inclosure Award at Corley Moor.
William’s grandson, also William Bree, who was Allesley Rector 1863 – 1917, leased the Corley Moor land to the diocesan authorities, and built the Mission Church there. The lease is for a very long period, and will apparently lapse if the building ceases to be used for ecclesiastical purposes. In the 1970’s it was used by Corley ecclesiastical parish for the purpose of Sunday school, although it is within Allesley Parish.

[my first photo explored :D]
here one shot from my first expedition to the glebe tram shed.
Cool place, some graffiti artist around, some other people taking photos and some other random just wanderin' around... seems like some sort of museum, definitely a place to check out.

The Glebe Gardens is a wonderful attraction in Launceston that was completed in 2009. It provides a wide range of landscaping styles and is the largest garden sales centre in northern Tasmania. These gardens are very popular for wedding photos.

Garden Walk
Situated next to St Peter’s Church in Heysham is the peaceful Glebe Garden. Recently transformed by local volunteer gardeners from an overgrown and neglected area into an oasis of peace and calm, with memorial seats and a range of roses including the original species of the Red Rose of Lancaster.
Works on the approaches to the new Glebe Island (later named Anzac) Bridge can be seen on the right and there's not a loco in sight as a variety of wagons, coal, intermodal and sand await their next assignment.
