amateur photographer and medical practitioner, lived on the Hunter’s Hill peninsula, outside Sydney, from about 1857 in a house called 'The Warren’ (demolished) overlooking Tarban Creek. He exhibited 'a number of very beautiful stereographs, representing views in the neighbourhood of Hunter’s Hill’ at a photographic conversazione held by the Philosophical Society of New South Wales at the Australian Subscription Library, Bent Street, Sydney, in 1859. In 1862 he showed fifty stereographic views at the London International Exhibition, presumably also of Hunter’s Hill and environs. A Dr Plomley was still a landholder on the Hunter’s Hill peninsula in the 1890s.
