"High Street"?

[edit]

It is well known by the locals as the "high street" in town.

From the article's introduction. A reference would be nice. I live in Adelaide, and I've never heard Rundle Mall referred to as such. So I can dispute "well known by the locals" if not the whole statement. "Well known" is a flexible phrase too.

Historic map

[edit]

I just noticed, from SLSA, a high res subset of a 1881 survey of the city. Useful for a historic insight into Rundle Mall. I'm not sure if SLSA can assert copyright on this. Being published in 1881 means it should be eligible for a Public Domain license on commons, but I'm not sure. Donama (talk) 05:24, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
