Maidstone 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 Maidstone 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 Maidstone 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.5594.01 - Short St 8 Maidstone - Former Police Station 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.02 - Short St 8 Maidstone - Former Police Station 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5594.03 - Short St 8 Maidstone - Former Police Station 2021 Photo 04.JPG 5594.04 - Studley St 24 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.05 - Studley St 34 - 36 Maidstone - Former Salvation Army Church 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5594.06 - Thomson St 28 Maidstone - Former Shop Site 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.07 - Thomson St Maidstone - Maidstone Tennis Club 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.08 - Thomson St Maidstone - Maidstone Tennis Club 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5594.09 - Thomson St Outside 7 Maidstone - Albert Facey Information Board Photo 01.JPG 5594.10 - Yardley St 21 Maidstone - Maidstone Community Centre 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5594.11 - Hampstead Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel Hampstead Rd 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.12 - Hampstead Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5594.13 - Williamson Road Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 05.JPG 5594.14 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 09.JPG 5594.15 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 12.JPG 5594.16 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 14.JPG 5594.17 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 10.JPG 5594.18 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.19 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 15.JPG 5594.20 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 16.JPG 5594.21 - Williamson Rd - Midway Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 17.JPG 5594.22 - Williamson Rd - Philip Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5594.23 - Williamson Rd - Philip Migrant Hostel 2021 Photo 04.JPG short street, studley street, thomson street, yardley street, hampstead road, williamson road, maidstone, maidstone police station, salvation army church, albert facey, maidstone tennis club, maidstone community centre, midway migrant hostel, philip migrant hostel, student village
