This work forms part of the collection assembled by the historian Dorothy Rogers, that was donated to the Kew Historical Society by her son John Rogers in 2015. The manuscripts, photographs, maps, and documents were sourced by her from both family and local collections or produced as references for her print publications. Many were directly used by Rogers in writing ‘Lovely Old Homes of Kew’ (1961) and 'A History of Kew' (1973), or the numerous articles on local history that she produced for suburban newspapers. Most of the photographs in the collection include detailed annotations in her hand. The Rogers Collection provides a comprehensive insight into the working habits of a historian in the 1960s and 1970s. Together it forms the largest privately-donated collection within the archives of the Kew Historical Society.Four-page folded A4 size brochure on the activities of the National Trust of Australia (Victoria)national trust of australia (victoria)

Birch, Administrator of National; Trust of Australia (Victoria)re: Suburban Hotel, Corner Whitehills Road & Gleeson Street, Bendigo.

The verandah is within the Whitehills title boundary but not along the Gleeson Street frontage. This portion of the verandah is not on the City's existing By-Law on post supported verandahs; and therefore, consider excluding the Gleeson Street verandah from the By-Law provisions.
