Christopher Brennan plaque ...


We've previously posted about this famous Cambridge Street resident (see link here).  And here is his plaque!  Sadly this is not on Cambridge Street, we are still working on the Woollahra Council plaque scheme.  This is plaque is part of the NSW Writers Walk down at Circular Quay / the Rocks.  The walk includes about 50 plaques celebrating the works of writers associated with Sydney.  These people either visited Sydney, wrote about Sydney, or lived in Sydney (and Cambridge St!).

Apart from Christopher Brennan, some other plaques commemorate Joseph Conrad, Charles Darwin, Arthur Conan Doyle, Clive James, Ruth Park, Mark Twain and Patrick White amongst others.  So you can see it is quite the eclectic selection.  I took this photo a few months ago so can't recall its exact location but it is on the Opera House side.  Have fun finding it when you're next down there ...
