A coloured photograph of Rokeby Road facing North. The photograph was taken from the corner of Rokeby Road and Bagot Road, on the left side of the road. There is a traffic light with a yellow pole showing a green light on the edge of the left footpath. Below this traffic light, a yellow street sign with black lettering reads 'PEDESTRIANS BEWARE'. Storefronts are visible on both sides of the road. On the left side of the road, signage reads 'OPSM', 'PARIS MATCH' and 'Chemists'. There is also a partially obstructed sign of which visible lettering reads 'tionery'. This is likely part of the signage for 'Terrace Stationery'.

Also visible on this side of the road is signage reading 'ROKEBYS, WINE BAR & COFFEE SHOP' and 'AMARIN, THAI RESTAURANT'. On the bottom right corner of the photograph, a red date stamp reads '21 1 '89'.
