Matale (inhabited place)
Found in 5 Collections and/or Records:
Ceylon [i.e. Sri Lanka] 1910-11, 1910 - 1911
Includes a number of photographs of tea estates.
Ceylon [i.e. Sri Lanka] - Fraser's Est; Factory, Matale, 1910 - 1911
A view showing the factory of Joseph Fraser's estate at Matale. This slide is a duplicate of another in this box but has a contradictory caption. Maskeliya and Matale are situated at almost opposite edges of the central tea-growing area of Ceylon, Maskeliya on the slopes of Adam's Peak in the south and Matale in the north.
Ceylon [i.e. Sri Lanka] - Fraser's Est: Matale, 1910 - 1911
A view showing a European standing among tea plants with estate buildings in the background. The man in the foreground is presumably Frederick H. Fraser who took over the running of the property from his father, Joseph, who had arrived in Ceylon in 1872 and become part proprietor of the Matale Estate in 1886.
Ceylon [i.e. Sri Lanka] - Matale rest house, 1910 - 1911
A view from the road of this attractive little bungalow with tiled roof.
Ceylon [i.e. Sri Lanka] Tea Factory, Maskeliya, 1910 - 1911
A view showing a tea factory perched on thickly vegetated hillside. This slide is a duplicate of another in this box which identifies the actual estate and the location as Matale. Consequently, this one appears to be wrongly captioned: Maskeliya and Matale are situated at almost opposite edges of the central tea-growing area of Ceylon, Maskeliya on the slopes of Adam's Peak in the south and Matale in the north.
