1906
Sometimes a mere trace of the past can be seen in the present landscape as in the view across Victoria Road, formerly Glebe St, from St Anne’s Cemetery toward Tibby Rose Auto Electrical and Tyre Service shop.
Henry Hay ran a butcher’s shop here from 1855, which was passed on to William Moss in 1901. Moss built a new shop lined with white tiles and fitted with marble counters. He also had an ice-making plant and owned the produce store next door. Meat came from his own slaughter yard in West Ryde.
