Some of you may be aware that I’ve gone back to Uni, it’s hard slog but some of it is fascinating. I hope you all enjoy my afternoon’s work on old maps.
Has some fascinating history – even showing our site as the Gatekeepers Lodge!! There are a few mentions of Mr Cockbill – his is the fountain that is usually in the local park.
I love the last one that shows that people had small parcels of land from Toorak rd through to Domain Rd…amazing.
The web site is pretty clunky but you can find it here
Good on you Garry!! Well done!! Kay and Ralph
