History Of Darlinghurst
History of Darlinghurst
Originally the great Valley Of Darlinghurst was originally subdivided by Governor Ralph Darling in the mid 1820s when he created 17 allotments of land parcels to house public servants and other private citizens.
With the 17 land grants that Governor Darling allowed he had strict conditions regarding that there could only be one dwelling per allotment, that each each dwelling should be built facing the city along the ridge, and that the land should have landscaped gardens around.
This changed the whole topography of the area when you sailed into Sydney harbour and Port Jackson made a great difference from what people could see. It also gave a very strong impression of the colony and the prosperity that you could gain as a free settlers coming to Australia.
it was a very strong a pointer of what you could gain by coming to Australia it was also very strong reminder of what you could also lose
