Lonsdale Street, Dandenong in 1915

In this view towards the west side of the street a few of the businesses grace the country town which Dandenong was at the time, with around 2000 residents, the community was close knit.

O.D. Notes:

The first 2 floor building on the right is the old Caffin and Caffin store, the two floor building on the left of it, was home to R. A. Titcher, he operated his pharmacy on the ground floor for about 40 years, living on the top floor with his family. On the left of this, single level building, with the two point tips, was the H. S. M. Ross news agency, in the old Melbe House building. This would pass through various operators, before eventually becoming Ewarts, and moving down next to Vanity Court.
