This harvester, a 1908 AL Type Stripper Harvester was made in the H.V. McKay Factory, Yuille Street, Ballarat. After sitting for many years in a paddock and in poor condition, the harvester was donated to the Sunshine and District Historical Society. Due to the lack of storage, the Society made temporary storage arrangements at Mt Derrimut. In the 1990's the Society obtained a grant for its restoration. Once these works were completed, the harvester was then located in the foyer outside the Sunshine Library Hampshire Road Sunshine. When this library was demolished to make way for the new Brimbank Community and Civic Centre, the harvester was once again put into temporary storage at the Brimbank City Council Operations Centre, Stadium Drive, Keilor Park. Prior to the new Brimbank Community and Civic Centre building works being completed, the harvester went through some minor restoration works of cleaning, repairing a damaged panel and repainting. All this worked was carried out on site at the Brimbank City Council Operations Centre by Artist Robert Jackson. Once the new Brimbank Community and Civic Centre building works were completed in 2016, the harvester was installed in the building and it is now suspended in the main foyer of the building. This is one of most significant objects that the Sunshine and District Historical Society has in its collection.Sunshine Hugh V. McKayyuille street, ballarat, h.v. mckay

Paperback booknon-fictionArticle Page 85: Batman's Treaties by Rex Harcourt On 6th June 1835, John Batman negotiated two treaties with the Aborigines of Port Phillip. The main treaty, the "Melbourne Deed", was for 500,000 acres and covered not only land in the Melbourne Area but also that stretched along the western arm of Port Phillip Bay to include the present city of Geelong. The "Geelong Deed" of 100,000 acres skirted Geelong to the south as far as the south coast of Victoria and included the Bellarine Peninsula which was then known as Indented Head. Sunshine & District was included in the "Melbourne Deed".

This list of factories in the City of Sunshine is an extract from a report by K.G. Wilson, L.R. Dryer & R.A. Scaramella, prepared for the Melbourne Western Region Commission (WRC). The Melbourne Western Region Commission was a major inter‑municipal planning and advocacy body operating across Melbourne’s western suburbs in the late 1970s and 1980s. It coordinated planning, heritage studies, and regional development across multiple councils. The Commission brought together a broad sweep of western-region councils City of Altona, City of Essendon, City of Footscray, City of Keilor, City of Sunshine, City of Williamstown, Shire of Bacchus Marsh, Shire of Melton & Shire of Werribee. The Melbourne Western Region Commission was one of the most important institutional predecessors to the region’s later heritage, planning, and community‑development frameworks.This report records the business name, type of industry and address of businesses operating in the City of Sunshine in 1984.Factory Name or Occupier A.

From archeological findings of aboriginal existence in the 40,000 years ago, to European history evolving over four distinct stages. Firstly, as a pastoral area, then as a stopover on the way to the goldfields. After the goldrush, Keilor became an area of rural activities. From the 1950's, available land and employment opportunities brought new citizens to Keilor from many different cultural backgrounds. Keilor has retained its rural heritage whilst embracing the features of a modern municipality. This video illustrates why Keilor is called the "The Best Country in Town"Keilor Our Heritage Produced by Keilor Historical Societykeilor

Bonegilla was the biggest and longest‑running migrant reception centre in post‑WWII Australia. It operated from 1947 to 1971 and received over 300,000 migrants from more than 50 countries. Bonegilla was the distribution hub for labour in Victoria. From this camp, people were sent to work in: - Factories (e.g., Sunshine Harvester Works, Kinnears Ropeworks, Olympic Tyres) - Railway workshops - Housing Commission estates - Construction projects - Hospitals and domestic service A huge proportion of these migrants then later settled in: - Sunshine - St Albans - Keilor - Braybrook - Albion - Footscray 5475. 01 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 02 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 03 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 04 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 05 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 06 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg 5475. 07 - Bonegilla Migrant Camp Photograph.jpg bonegilla migrant camp, bonegilla

The Sydenham level crossing gates at Keilor–Melton Road operated from the mid 1800s. The railway crossing was required when the Bendigo line opened in 1859. The crossing was a simple gated level crossing that existed to allow farm traffic across the line. The nearby station was called Keilor Road. In 1887, the Keilor Road Station was renamed to Sydenham. The crossing remained essential for farmers moving between the Keilor Plains and the Calder district. The gates remained manually operated, with railway staff responsible for opening and closing the gates. These gates operated until 2002, and when the original Sydenham Station closed, the gates were replaced with traffic lights In 2018, the entire crossing was permanently removed with a grade separation as part of the State Government Level Crossing Removal Project.sydenham railway station, keilor - melton road, sydenham

Kealba is a suburb of Brimbank City Council, but prior to the Victorian Council amalgamations in 1994, Kealba was a suburb of City of Keilor. The Principal Mr. Leo Webb of the local St. Albans Park High School, requested a name change to the school to avoid confusion with the nearby St. Albans High School. A community group was formed to rename the school and the surrounding area. In 1970, the name Kealba was chosen. The name is a portmanteau of Keilor and St Albans — the two suburbs that border it.Alie Missen's document captures a brief history of the area from the early days of being a pastoral district, to today, a modern suburb.Just a Little Historykealba, history, st. albans east

Rockbank was once part of the Braybrook Road District. In, 1871 the Road District became the Shire of Braybrook. In 1916, this district was transferred to the Shire of Melton. In 1951, further land was lost to the Shire of Melton. During the early days of the Ballarat gold rush, Beatty's Road was one of the main routes from Melbourne to Ballarat via Keilor . In December 1854, troops of the 12th and 40th Regiments marching to suppress the Eureka Stockade would have used this route before stopping at the Rockbank Inn, which was located on Beatty's Road, further west towards Melton. One of the photographs captures a Terrestrial Road surface (Local Blue Stone), one of the district's early sealed section of road. 5644.01 - Beattys Road Bridge Rockbank 2008 Photo 01.JPG 5644.02 - Beattys Road Bridge Rockbank 2008 Photo 02.JPG 5644.03 - Beattys Road Terrestrial Road Surface Rockbank 2008 Photo 04.JPG 5644.04 - Beattys Road Paddocks Rockbank 2008 Photo 03.JPGbeatty's road, rockbank, rockbank inn, terrestrial road

In 1910, Alice Errington donated six acres of land to the people of St Albans. The land donated was located on the south side of Boundary Road (Now Main Road East), which was the border between the Shire of Braybrook and the Shire of Keilor, In reality, the community was one, and Alice intended the land provide recreation facilities for both the Shire of Braybrook and the Shire of Keilor residents. In 1929, the reserve trustees decided to vest the land to the Shire of Braybrook Council due to ongoing rate costs, liability for road construction costs and the need for formal municipal management. The memorial wrought iron gates were added later and are one of the few early memorials in St Albans that have a tangible link to the pioneer era of the district. Over the years the reserve has seen various landscaping design changes, and various sporting club rooms and community buildings added. This photograph taken in 1993, captures the planting of a Canary Island tree in the reserve to reflect the 1920's - 1940's civic planting trends. As of the 8th January 2026 this tree is still alive and growing in the reserve. Errington Reserve is one of the few reserves created by a private donation, and one of the earliest examples of a woman shaping public space in the St. Albans district.5658 - Errington Reserve Palm Tree Planting (Sun Adv 203.3) 1993 Photo 02.JPGmain road east, st. albans, errington reserve, alice errington
