Sunshine Furniture Discounts was one of those classic west‑side discount furniture shops that served Sunshine’s working‑class and migrant families from the late 1970s through the 1990s. It wasn’t a boutique showroom, it was a practical, affordable, no‑nonsense place where people bought the furniture they needed to build their homes.The significance of the store comes from how it supported the nearby community by providing practical, affordable, no‑nonsense furniture.Sunshine Furniture Discounts 105 Anderson Road Sunshine 1991 222.2sunshine furniture discounts, anderson road, sunshine

This key was the front door key to the house at 93 Anderson Road Sunshine. The donor's letter provides an insight to the history of the house and its occupants. Metal key and letter from the donor with details about the houseNote from the donor. Dear Alan, I'm sorry to say I cannot find my photos of 93 Anderson Rad Sunshine. My husband and I travelled a lot, so they've either disappeared on one of our moves or my brother may have them, he is going to have a look. As to "93", 3-bedroom, lounge room, kitchen / dining room with a woodstove, scullery with a gas stove, laundry, bathroom, and a small back porch. My father eventually built an enclosed back verandah right across the back of the house which had the benefit of bringing the toilet undercover, wonderful. The house was taken by council in the early 70's, to make way for a road through to the old council yards, which was being developed for housing. It was sad because Dad had always kept it in good repair, so there was no need for it to go as there were others in not such a good condition. I loved that house, lots of great memories growing up in Sunshine, but Perth has been our home for many years now. No 93 was bought my grandfather, don't know what date, and my father & mother and baby brother lived there with is sister and husband, their daughter and baby son (Irene & Jack Evans). Uncle Jack was a gardener at Sunshine Gardens. Dad worked first at H.V. McKays and then was a man powered to ICI at Deer Park in the black powder plant during the war. After the war we was transferred into the acid plant. He spent the rest of his working life at ICI. anderson road, sunshine, robert garnet boyd

'After training as a Cartographic Draftsman within the mining industry, I worked as a property illustrator for real estate firms in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne for 23 years from 1983. I initially photographed houses with a Polaroid camera and made a 'thumbnail' sketch while there. The photos were used to scale off a sketch in pencil and then that sketch was overlaid with drafting film and the 'pen and ink' completed. The pens I used were the Rotring ‘Rapidigraph’ drafting pens. The ink was also made by Rotring (German).The film was ‘Rapidraw’, polyester drafting film, double matte. It takes a very fine line and doesn’t bleed. As well as house sketches, there were often floor plans and site plans ordered. Aerial sketches were ordered when the property needed an overall view.'

The Sunshine Gardens became officially known as the H.V. McKay Memorial Gardens in 1953, when the Sunshine Council formally adopted the name to commemorate H.V. McKay, who had died in 1926. That’s the moment the gardens shifted from simply being “the Sunshine Gardens” or “the factory gardens” to a named memorial landscape.In 1991, a conservation strategy plan was prepared to protect the garden's historical significance. The garden was first planted in 1909.Photograph of sign and trees H.V. McKay Memorial Gardens Anderson Road Sunshineh.v. mckay gardens, h.v. mckay memorial gardens, anderson road, sunshine

Parsons & Lewis was the horse‑hair curling factory that operated on Graham Street (Now part of Anderson Rd), Sunshine (then Braybrook Junction). The Co-Founders of the company were Edmund “Ted” Parsons (1855–1918) & Richard Lewis (d1909). The business was founded in 1887 and shifted to the Graham Street site in 1901. Richard Lewis died of anthrax, a known occupational hazard in hair‑processing industries. The factory was deliberately placed on the banks of Kororoit Creek because large volumes of water were required for the horse‑hair curling process. Horsehair was washed, sorted, curled, dried, and baled, a labor-intensive process requiring skilled “drafters,” curlers, and spinners. The factory processed animal hair for use in brushes and upholstery. In 1988, the business was relocated to a site in Kensington.The Parsons & Lewis Horse Hair Curling Factory was one of the most important early industrial sites in Sunshine’s heritage landscape. The Parsons family became one of the most respected families in Sunshine, both socially and civically. Their reputation was built over three generations, combining industrial contribution, community service, and local leadership.Parsons & Lewis Horsehair Drawers and Curlersparsons & lewis, factory, parsons, graham street, anderson road, sunshine
