The Robin Hood Hotel is on the corner of Bronte Road and Carrington Road, in the eastern suburb of Waverley. This wedge shaped pub was built in 1945 in the art deco architectural style.
The Harbour View Hotel is located on the corner of Cumberland Street and Lower Fort Street at Dawes Point. The original Harbour View was demolished to make way for the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The pylon of the bridge now stands where the Harbour View Hotel previously stood. This hotel was constructed in 1924 and became a convenient watering hole for workers constructing the Harbour Bridge. The building was heritage listed and restored in 2001 with attention to its art deco style.
The Australian Hotel is located on the corner of Cumberland Street and Gloucester Street in The Rocks. This heritage listed pub that was built in 1913 in the Edwardian architectural style. It retains most of its original features and features a unique split level bar. The original Australian Hotel was built in 1824 in George Street but was demolished during the plague to prevent outbreaks. The licence was transferred to this building, making it the oldest continuously licensed pub in the City of Sydney.
The Sir Joseph Banks Hotel is located in Anniversary Street, in the eastern suburb of Botany, beside the Sir Joseph Banks Pleasure Grounds. The original two storey building, known as the Banks Inn, was begun in 1840 by Thomas Kellet and J Drew, in the Georgian architectural style. By the 1850s it had developed gardens, a private zoo and provision for outdoor sports. It became a popular weekend and holiday pleasure ground. About 1860, a further single storey wing was added to the east and around 1870, the north wing was added in the Victorian Italianate style, heavily ornamented with slab, parapets and two storey cast iron verandas. In 1920, the license was transferred to a new hotel with the same name, built on Botany Road. In 1926 the complex was sold and the hotel was converted into apartments.
The Royal Hotel is located in the inner city suburb of Darlington. It sits on the prominent corner of Abercrombie Street and Codrington Street, behind this roundabout. It was built in 1894 by James England to serve the needs of local railway workers at the nearby Eveleigh railway workshops. The suburb was named after Governor Ralph Darling. The area was originally known as Golden Grove when it was used as market gardens, and that name remains as a locality within the suburb.
Glengarry Castle Hotel is located on the corner of Lawson Street and Abercrombie Street, in the inner city suburb of Redfern. The hotel was established before 1880. This is an old photo, so the prices of beer in schooners and jugs will not be as cheap as the banners advertise. The exterior of this pub has recently been repainted to a neutral colour scheme but I prefer this style, even with the paint peeling. The red mini waiting at the traffic lights, matched the colour scheme too.
