Maribyrnong was originally part of the former Shire of Braybrook and later the City of Sunshine. However, in 1994, Victoria underwent council amalgamations, which resulted in Braybrook being incorporated into the City of Maribyrnong. The suburb of Maribyrnong continues to attract considerable attention from the residents of City of Brimbank, particularly its historical features, the old buildings and distinctive streetscapes that characterise the area.To capture the essence of Maribyrnong in 2021, a series of photographs were taken. These images document a range of buildings, street scenes, and other notable points of interest throughout the suburb, providing a visual record of its unique character.5599.01 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5599.02 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5599.03 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 06.JPG 5599.04 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 09.JPG 5599.05 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 15.JPG 5599.06 - Raleigh Preserving Meat Works 2021 Photo 17.JPG 5599.07 - Raleigh Rd - Maribyrnong Reserve 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5599.08 - Raleigh Rd - Maribyrnong Reserve 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5599.09 - Raleigh Rd - Maribyrnong Reserve 2021 Photo 04.JPG 5599.10 - Raleigh Rd - Maribyrnong Reserve 2021 Photo 05.JPG 5599.11 - Raleigh Rd - Maribyrnong Reserve 2021 Photo 12.JPG 5599.12 - Raleigh Rd Maribyrnong - Maribyrnong War Memorial And Cenotaph 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5599.13 - Raleigh Rd Maribyrnong - Maribyrnong War Memorial And Cenotaph 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5599.14 - Raleigh Rd Bridge 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5599.15 - Raleigh Rd Bridge 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5599.16 - Raleigh Rd Maribyrnong - Pine Trees 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5599.17 - Randall Rd Maribyrnong - Maribyrnong Community Centre 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5599.18 - Remont Hill Maribyrnong 2021 Photo 01.JPG raleigh road, randall road, maribyrnong, maribyrnong preserving meat works, maribyrnong reserve, maribyrnong war memorial and cenotaph, maribyrnong community centre, remont hill

Maidstone began as an 1858 speculative township on Ballarat Road, grew slowly due to isolation from rail transport, then expanded rapidly in the 20th century through tram extensions, defence industries, migrant hostels, and Housing Commission estates.Today it is a diverse, residential‑industrial suburb shaped by waves of working‑class settlement, post‑war migration, and late‑20th‑century redevelopment. Early Foundations (1840s–1860s- The broader district saw activity from the 1840s, including Joseph Raleigh’s meat‑preserving works on the Maribyrnong River, which sat on the boundary of what became Maidstone. - Land speculator J.W. Thompson launched the township with great fanfare, including a German band and a banner proclaiming “Every man his own landlord.” - Despite the marketing, by 1860 only about ten homes existed. - - Maidstone grew slowly because it was isolated from the railway, relying instead on punts across the Maribyrnong River. - A National School opened in 1858, but the area remained sparsely settled. - The district’s early industrial landscape included: - Raleigh’s meat works (1843) - Victorian Powder Magazine, later expanded for military use These sites later became part of Pipemakers Park and the Living Museum of the West. - The arrival of trams from Footscray in 1921 finally unlocked residential growth. - A Progress Association formed, and the suburb gained amenities including its own cinema in the 1940s. - Housing stock from this era included weatherboard, Art Deco, and Californian Bungalow homes.
