I am conducting a survey of hand made ironwork in the City of Melbourne as a component of my research project for MA (Art in Public Space) at RMIT University.
The geographical parameters are Flinders St, Spring St, Victoria St, Hawke St and Spencer St.
All streets and laneways which fall within these boundaries will be included in the survey.
While interested particularly in the handmade, I'm looking only at works which can be seen from the street and are forged iron or steel.

Site 1.
City Baths. Victoria St.





This site is a typical cast iron fence assembly with forged iron buttressing, gate styles and drop bolts. The fence and gates separate public street space with a public venue which requires the payment of an entrance fee.
