... Somerville Rd - Half Moon Caravan Park Photograph...Half Moon Caravan Park Somerville Road Brooklyn Digital color photograph Photograph Somerville Rd - Half Moon Caravan Park Photograph ...The Half Moon Caravan Park was located at 1–9 Millers Road, Brooklyn, on the corner of Somerville Road. It was established in the 1960s, according to commercial property records but another source states the caravan park was built in 1956, which likely reflects the earliest development of the site before it became widely known as Half Moon. The caravan park closed prior to 2010, when the site was sold and later cleared. When it closed, 73 residents were rehoused through a coordinated effort by Hobsons Bay Council and community agencies. By 2016–2017, the site was being marketed for industrial redevelopment, including a permit for 28 warehouses.half moon caravan park, somerville road, brooklyn -

However, in 1994, Victoria underwent council amalgamations, which resulted in parts of Brooklyn being incorporated into the City of Brimbank City of Hobsons Bay and City of Maribyrnong. The suburb of Brooklyn 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 Brooklyn 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.5584.01 - Alick Rd 3 Brooklyn - Henderson's Marble And Granite 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5584.02 - Kororoit Creek Sewer Aqueduct Brooklyn 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5584.03 - Kororoit Creek Sewer Aqueduct Brooklyn 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5584.04 - Kororoit Creek Sewer Aqueduct Brooklyn 2021 Photo 04.JPG 5584.05 - Somerville Rd 423 Brooklyn - Monsanto 2021 Photo 01.JPG alick road, kororoit creek, somerville road, brooklyn, henderson's marble and granite, aqueduct, monsanto -

He was admitted to the Supreme Court in 1884 having qualified from Melbourne University and practiced in Melbourne. In 1891 he married Agnes Somerville Wanliss and they had one son, William Mitchell (1901 Armadale) and two daughters, Beatrice Wanliss (1899 Armadale) and Agnes Somerville Wanliss (1903 Armadale). Sir William Irvine sat in the Victorian Parliament (as Liberal Member for Lowan) from 1894 to 1906 and was Premier of Victoria from 1902 to 1904. He then switched to Federal politics and sat in the Commonwealth Parliament (as Liberal Member for Flinders) from 1906 to 1918. He was considered a potential Prime Minister, but his abrupt manner and hard-line conservatism (particularly his attitude to a railway strike) made him unacceptable even to many Liberals: he was known in Parliament as "Iceberg Irvine". He lived at Richmond, but in 1908 purchased land in Laughing Waters Road at Eltham, where he built the house ‘Killeavey’, initially as a weekend retreat. The site, a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the Yarra River, is of geological importance and has considerable cultural significance to the Wurundjeri. In 1912 Sir William moved to Killeavey and in 1913 purchased more land, extending his property to Reynolds Road. In 1923 he shifted to Toorak, donating Killeavey to his daughter Beatrice as a wedding gift. Sir William was a founding member of the RACV and was Acting Governor of Victoria from 1931 to 1934. He was also a notable public figure involved in several local events including the: 1919 Unveiling of Eltham War Obelisk 1921 Eltham Primary School Extensions 1921 Eltham Primary School Roll of Honour of prior students 1928 Opening of Eltham Higher Elementary School 1926 Unveiling the Shire of Eltham War Memorial in Memorial Park at Kangaroo Ground He died in 1943 and is buried in Eltham Cemetery with his wife Agnes along with son William Mitchell Irvine and his wife, Dora Haswell Sacred to the memory of William Hill Irvine G.C.M.G.
