On 23 July 1922, Brighton City Council adopted the recommendation from a sub-committee that the site for a war memorial be at Green Point, Brighton Beach. Brighton Council invited designs, limited to returned soldier architects and 18 designs were received. The first prize of £30 was awarded to the architecture firm Irwin and Stevenson and the designs were exhibited at the Brighton Town Hall in 1925. The bronze casting, using lost wax technique, was executed by sculptor Mr. Paul Montford, to the design of the architect and the central assemblage was believed to be the largest bronze casting in relief carried out in Australia at the time. The Brighton War Memorial was unveiled by His Excellency the Governor, the Right Honourable Arthur Herbert Tennyson Baron Somers, K.C.M.G., D.S.O., M.C., on Sunday 24th April 1927 in the presence of 4,000 people. The memorial was originally constructed to commemorate those from the City of Brighton who served in World War One but has since been augmented to commemorate those from the municipality of Bayside who have made the ultimate sacrifice during official periods of hostility.War memorial consisting of a sandstone cenotaph, granite base and sandstone terrace situated at Green Point, Brighton. The cenotaph is a truncated obelisk with classical decoration in stone and bronze. The cenotaph bears the Rising Sun badge in bronze relief near its top with bronze lettering running down the cenotaph reading "ERECTED IN HONOUR OF THOSE WHO FOUGHT IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1919". A bronze relief assemblage of crossed weapons, a wreath, the lamp of valour and the Latin phrase "DUCIT AMOR PATRIA" (love of country leads me) sit above the base which is carved with the word "SERVICE". The terrace walls have bronze relief medallions with images of the head of an airman on the left and an infantryman on the right. The back of the cenotaph bears a torch in bronze relief near its top. On the sandstone wall behind the cenotaph are three large bronze plaques that lists the names of those from the City of Bayside who have served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved. At the back of the sandstone wall is carved lettering reading "HISTORY GAVE THEM A COMMON FAME. POSTERITY A COMMON MONUMENT" with 1914 carved on the left and 1919 on the right.brighton war memorial, memorial, cenotaph, green point, war memorial, brighton, service, paul montford, irwin and stevenson, rising sun, wreath, weapons, lamp of valour, great war, world war one, honour roll, honour board, roll of honour, ducit amor patriae, brighton beach, city of brighton, leighton major francis irwin, roy kenneth stevenson

The Shine Dome is one of seven projects that the Royal Australian Institute of Architects has nominated to the World Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture. In 1956 six architects were invited to submit plans for the Academy of Science's new building in Canberra and the Academy's building design committee selected Grounds Romberg and Boyd's proposal designed by Roy Grounds. It features a shallow arcaded concrete dome, sheeted in copper and was one of a number of domed buildings that appeared around this time internationally, expressing the optimism of the post-war years. It perfectly reflected the Academy's ambition to champion excellence in Australian science and promote international scientific engagement. Paul Wallace, a well-known Melbourne renderer, drew this perspective of the proposed design, possibly for the competition submission, in 1956.Coloured perspective of the Academy of Science buiding in Canberra.Printed text on attached sticker, 'ACADEMY OF SCIENCE, CANBERRA / 1958 / Grounds, Romberg and Boyd, / Architects'.

Western Smallgoods in Sunshine North was one of the west’s classic European‑style smallgoods manufacturers, a place that supplied the suburb with continental meats, sausages, hams, and deli products during the decades when Sunshine and this surrounding suburbs were becoming a strong post‑war migrant community.Western Smallgoods was far more than a factory for migrants in the Western Suburbs, it was a lifeline, a cultural anchor, and a symbol of belonging to their families and cultural back in Europe.Western Smallgoods 208 - 210 McIntyre Road Sunshine 200.2western smallgoods, mcintyre road, sunshine north

St Albans Railway Station has one of the most layered histories of any suburban station in Melbourne’s west, beginning as a speculative land‑development stop in 1887, rebuilt in 1959 to ease traffic congestion, modernised in 2002, and finally transformed into a below‑ground station in 2016 as part of the Level Crossing Removal Project. These photographs, taken by The Advocate in 1990, highlighted the ongoing problems faced by the Department of Transport as trains stored overnight at St Albans Station were repeatedly targeted by vandals tagging carriages, breaking windows, slashing seats, and causing other damage. In response, 2.9‑metre‑high security fencing topped with barbed wire, along with high‑powered spotlights, was installed to protect the yard.These photographs capture the station when the suburban electrification line ended at the St. Albans Railway Station on the city side of Main Road West and when trains were stored there overnight.St. Albans Station 207.2st. albans railway station, main road west, st. albans

These photographs, taken by The Advocate newspaper in 1990, show the former John Darling & Son Flour Mill, now owned by Goodman Fielder, approximately twelve months after its closure. With the mill’s future uncertain, the site has been added to the Victoria's State Register of Historic Buildings. In 1990, the mill and silos were getting ready to be put up for sale.John Darling & Son Flour Mill in Albion is one of the most important industrial heritage sites in Melbourne’s west, a rare, largely intact example of a major early‑20th‑century roller flour mill, and a cornerstone of Sunshine’s transformation into a planned “garden industrial suburb.” These photographs capture the John Darling & Son Flour Mills when they had the stainless-steel silos which have been subsequently demolished. They also capture the Albion Railway Station and its carpark.John Darling Flour Mills Albion 36.1john darling and sons flour mill, flur mills, albion railway station, sydney street, albion, goodman fielder

These photographs are of the St. Albans Railway Station when the electrification of the line terminated at the St. Albans Railway Station. In 1991, the station was located on the city side of Main Road West and the level crossing was still in operational. It wasn't until 2012, when the line was fully electrified to Sunbury as part of the Sunbury Electrification Project. The level crossing was removed in 2016 as part of the Victorian Government Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP).The train pictured is a Hitachi Train, or commonly referred to as the Silver Train. They were Melbourne’s iconic stainless‑steel suburban trains, introduced from 1972 and running until 2014. These trains were the last of Victoria's fleet not to have air conditioning, and by the 2000's, they no longer met contemporary safety and accessibility standards. The Hitachi trains had replaced the Harris trains, also referred as the Blue Train or Bluey. The Harris trains were taken out of service because they contained asbestos. One of photographs clearly captures the termination of the "Down Line" at the St. Albans Railway Station.5664.01 - St. Albans Railway Station (Sun Adv 207.2) 1990 Photo 01.JPG 5664.02 - St. Albans Railway Station (Sun Adv 207.2) 1990 Photo 02.JPGst. albans railway station, main road west, st. albans, hitachi train
