Details: From a lecture by F.A. Cadell to the Newcastle Historical Society - Mr. Croasdill was the grantee of land at the corner of Hunter and Brown Streets, a valuable corner allotment. The date of the grant was November 23, 1854. It was described in the grant as being divided from the A. A. Co land where the Bank of Australasia premises were later by a passage. Brown Street could not have been properly aligned at that time. The land was first utilised as a brickyard where bricks were manufactured from clay dug out of Perkins Street. Small shopping premises including the Hunter River Hotel were afterwards built on the site, and a building lease was granted later to W. Winn and Co. for a term of 21 years, but during the currency of the lease in May 1929, it was sold to that firm for 36000 pounds
