... "Royal Talbot, left to Kew East, right to Alphington"...Ron Setford Eastern Freeway F19 Freeway "Royal Talbot, left to Kew East, right to Alphington" Photograph Construction of the F19 [Eastern Freeway] Ron Setford ...Ron Setford and his wife Grace Setford lived in Tanner Avenue, East Kew, from c.1946 to c.1995. A keen photographer, he recorded the changing face of Kew over a 20 year period. Apart from 30 photographs of built structures and places in Kew dating from 1960 and 1961, 145 of his 35mm colour slides chronicle the development of the F19 (later renamed Eastern) Freeway through the Yarra Valley in Kew over a five year period from c.1972 to c.1977. This important collection was donated to the Society by his granddaughter in 2025.This collection of 175 35mm slides is of local and statewide significance, owing to its subject matter, particularly the major development of road transport infrastructure during the 1970s with the construction of the Eastern Freeway. The photographer also took care to annotate and date most of his slides which enable the researcher to pinpoint temporal and spatial locations."Royal Talbot, left to Kew East, right to Alphington"ron setford, eastern freeway, f19 freeway -
