Wagons in front of Brett & Johnston Coach Builders, Murray Street Hill., [between 1897 and 1899?] Digital

James Brett and William Arras Johnston were partners from 1891 until 1908. They conducted business from 1891 until 1899 in Murray Street, before moving to a Gellibrand Street site. Their shop was built in 1877 by Edmond Cooper, who bought the original Crown land in 1975. Herbert S. Belyea, whose shop is at cropped right, traded until 1904 when he sold to the firm of Sunderland and Sears.
