Tasmania is a certainly special place. Many more interesting videos are in pipeline for the series. Finding the time to edit them has been my main challenge this past year! Glad you enjoyed this episode! Its a beauty!
Looking forward to visiting Sheffield on our Tasmania Cruise from Brisbane in January 20th, 2023. Booked a tour from Burnie. I really enjoyed watching your video and learning more about the history of this unique town. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your wonderful narratives. I have enjoyed watching all 18 youtube episodes of your travels to recreat H.J.Kings' photos. Memories shared will never be forgotten. Kind regards, Heather Smith, Queensland.
Really?! Herbs photo was taken back in 1912! I think we all feel a bit old at times, but probably not that old! :)))))))) Maybe you are referring to the 2019 photo outside the IGA?
Yes, so many beautiful buildings and historic structures have been lost in Tasmania. My video (Ep 03) on the removal and destruction of the classic iron pillars at both ends of the Longford Bridge is a classic example. Thankfully quite a few buildings still remain when compared to the rest of Australia. This is what gives Tasmania its charm :)
Am enjoying your videos. The poles on the far side of the street with dual cross arms and multiple insulators are more likely telephone lines. Would Sheffield have had electric power back in that era?
Thank you for putting together such a wonderful tribute to our little town, for which tourism is now the main industry, hence the murals. I am sure your film will get a good run in the various tourism promotions for the town.
Thanks, Lindsay. Hopefully the tourists will start to return to Sheffiled very soon, (once we have COVID-19 under control!) If I have helped in some small way, then that has made my day :)
Awesome episode! I watched it 4 times not to miss any detail! To me the street light of today and the old was amazing and show a town council committed to retain history. Sad about the old Hotel. The video titles are awesome! Well done!
Thank you Kathleen for making this video, what a beautiful town and history....

Thanks Heather, Editing each story is an extremely creative process. Sometimes I even surprise myself when I uncover an unexpected twist to my tale! 😀
We were there in 2019. Your presentation is very special. Thank you.
Thanks for your feedback. Plenty more fabulous and quirky stories to come! Just trying to find the time to edit them is my current challenge!
@@goldenstardust awesome. Very much looking forward to seeing them.
Happy memories of shefrock,, I was born in the old Sheffield hospital in 67 . Really enjoyed
shefrock at sheffield school?
@@shadowcat1_ it’s now Tandarra Lodge near the primary school,, We actually lived out at Roland .
oh, we have shefrock cafe at the new sheffield school
Whenever Sheffield Tasmania is mentioned and the murals. ...I instantly think of Monty Python's 'Away From it All' and the gondolas
Kathleen! So well done, thank you so much - a real joy to watch. I think that was me outside the SHEFFIELD Hotel (in the old picture)!

Thank you for your wonderful film! What a tragedy to lose that beautiful old Sheffield Hotel building :(

Excellent videos, would you consider doing any more?

Was that the York Schmitt & Co, Katherine before it became the River Don Trading Co? When was the V Padman store built? Enjoyed the video.

My favourite part was superimposing the big Mack truck driving through the town exactly where the horse and cart were 100 years ago!
