Dalkeith - Shops This is the major shopping/business area on Waratah Avenue. A grand mock-Tudor style complex that looks very imposing. This wing, housing a real estate agency, protrudes towards the road. January 2011 |

Dalkeith - Shops The post office and chemist's shop look really attractive, right at the west end of the shopping centre. January 2011 |

Dalkeith - Garage Rather swish looking and "unbranded" service station on Waratah Avenue. I took a photo here only 4 weeks ago and it had petrol pumps. Today they've gone! January 2011 |

|
Dalkeith - Village Cinema This used to the Village Cinema on Waratah Avenue. When I say "used to be", it doesn't look much like a functioning cinema to me anymore even though the sign on the front says "Revue". January 2011 |
|
|
Dalkeith - Council Facilities A little to the west of the Revue Cinema, on Waratah Avenue is the Dalkeith Hall and local Community Care Centre. January 2011 |
|
|
Dalkeith - Church The Carmel of the Most Holy Trinity is on Adelma Road, and another fine looking church. The Foundation Stone was laid the His Grace Most Rev. R. Prendiville, Archbishop of Perth, on 15th October 1936. January 2011 |

|
Dalkeith - Park This is Mason Gardens, on the corner of Adelma Road and Kathryn Crescent. The central lake has dried up (alas, like just about every other small local lake in Perth). In this picture is an amazing stand of giant bamboo fronted by that intriguing single chair. The chair is inscribed thus: "One Is For You Alone". Perhaps placed here for passers by to sit and peacefully reflect on life in the shadows of the bamboo. I did. January 2011 |

Dalkeith - Church St Lawrence's Church in Dalkeith. December 2010 |

Dalkeith - River Off Jutland Parade there are a few of these cul-de-sacs running down towards the river mainly to provide road access to homes. "No through road - No river access". The bank down to the river is steep! Lovely leafy vista down the street with a glimpse of the river and Attadale on the far bank. December 2010 |
|
|
Dalkeith - River Point Resolution is the southern tip of the Dalkeith peninsular. An agreeable park and recreation ground. This view looks over the river towards Mosman Park. December 2010 |
|
|
Dalkeith - River A little bit further downstream on the river from Crawley (on a boat trip to Fremantle), we passed by these rather expensive river-front houses in Dalkeith. October 2010 |
