LOVELL CHEN 2013 3 GREATER BENDIGO THEMATIC ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY JUNE 2013 Introduction This Thematic Environmental History has been prepared for the City of Greater Bendigo. It is a component of a larger project which also involves preparation of a study Overview Report; community consultation including community workshops held across the municipal area; compilation of a list of known and potential heritage places associated with the themes identified in the history; preparation of a statement of significance for the municipality; and the identification of priorities for future heritage study work. In undertaking this work, the authors acknowledge that the history is written about country of which the members and elders of the Jaara people of the Dja Dja Wurrung language community, the Barapa Barapa people, the Taungurung people, and the Ngurai-illam Wurrung people and their forebears, are the traditional owners. Greater Bendigo The Greater Bendigo municipality includes Victoria's third largest city by population, Bendigo, as well as a significant rural hinterland. Smaller townships are located at Axedale, Elmore, Goornong, Heathcote, Huntly, Lockwood and district, Marong, Mia Mia, Neilborough, Raywood, Redesdale, Sebastian and Woodvale. The municipality encompasses a total land area of approximately 3,000 square kilometres, of which a significant proportion is set aside as national, or regional parks; various crown land reserves; and public forests. Much of the private rural land is used for agricultural purposes, including poultry and pig farming, sheep and cattle grazing, and as vineyards. In the Thematic Environmental History, the historical names have been used: Bendigo Creek or goldfields for the early years, Sandhurst (1853–1891) and Bendigo (1891-to date). The city was also known briefly as Castleton, but it was not a popularly used name. The municipality is referred to by its current name as ‘Greater Bendigo’. Figure 1 Map of Greater Bendigo. Source: City of Greater Bendigo 4 LOVELL CHEN 2013 GREATER BENDIGO THEMATIC ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY JUNE 2013 Thematic framework This Thematic Environmental History documents the principal historical themes in the development of Greater Bendigo, examining and analysing the land use and settlement patterns of the municipality within an overriding thematic framework. The report has been structured, at the request of the City of Greater Bendigo, to directly reflect and respond to the main themes and sub-themes of Victoria’s Framework of Historical Themes.1 Accordingly, the history is not structured chronologically. The Thematic Environmental History is also not a complete history of the municipality, or an overview of events. Rather, it covers the physical evolution and development of Greater Bendigo, within the thematic framework, and identifies the important distinguishing characteristics of the municipality. The history also draws connections between people, events and places, and sheds light on the role of people, industry and other activities in shaping the landscape and built form of the municipality. The ongoing influence of the cultural and ethnic diversity which emerged on the goldfields 150 years ago is a rich theme of the municipality, as is the long thread of Aboriginal history and continuity, from the pre-contact period to the present. This ‘larger story’ of the persistence of historical themes into the twenty first century shows how historical patterns have endured, and reveals the way in which the municipality remains dynamic and evolving. The greater weight given to particular themes also reflects the importance of these themes in terms of the evolution and development of the municipal area – gold mining being an obvious example. Without due recognition given to the more important themes, the value of the heritage places associated with these themes may not be fully understood. Lesser- known themes, however, are also explored, helping to reveal the complex layering of culture, society, economy and industry over the landscape of Greater Bendigo. Restrictions on the word limit of a Thematic Environmental History, as recommended by Heritage Victoria,2 also constrain the extent to which particular themes can be examined. Intangible heritage, which amongst other things relates to practices, traditions, knowledge and skills, including those passed from generation to generation, is not addressed in the Thematic Environmental History. Related places The history makes reference to places associated with the themes, either in the body of the text or listed at the end of each section, as ‘Related places’. These include known extant places; potential but unconfirmed places; places of documented or potential heritage value or significance; and places which are not necessarily of heritage significance. The purpose of identifying these places is to illustrate how tangible the themes are, and how they are physically represented in the municipality. Heritage places in Greater Bendigo encompass buildings, structures, gardens and vegetation, landscapes and spaces. Some are Aboriginal places, or ruins such as historical archaeological sites. Sites of natural significance, including those of geological value, are also within the study area. Aboriginal history An account of the daily lives of the area’s Aboriginal peoples prior to European contact was written during the research for this Thematic Environmental History. It was drawn from historical documentary records such as the written observations and sketches of the first Europeans in the area, as well as extracts from the archaeological record and contemporary scholarly research. While the significant limitations of this approach are recognised, the LOVELL CHEN 2013 5 GREATER BENDIGO THEMATIC ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY JUNE 2013 research was undertaken to achieve some understanding of life before European settlement, and to assist with tracing later patterns and changes. However, the repercussions of colonialism impacted beyond the Greater Bendigo area and it was necessary to extend the account of this area’s Aboriginal peoples to a Victorian context, to trace movement and resettlement beyond this region. The Greater Bendigo Thematic Environmental History is a post-contact history that focuses on this municipality after Europeans arrived in the area. How the Aboriginal peoples of this country were affected by, and survived, this contact is detailed in Theme 2 ‘Peopling Greater Bendigo’s places and landscapes’. This is a condensed version of the ‘Aboriginal history’ report, which is in a separate volume, bounded by the geographical area of the Greater Bendigo municipality and the post-colonial contact timeframe. Note on sources This Thematic Environmental History has relied on, and refers to, numerous published histories, local histories, reports and pamphlets, archival and primary sources, and other sources of historical information. The sources are identified in endnote references.

  • Pdf Covenanting Congregations in Victoria
    COVENANTING CONGREGATIONS IN VICTORIA In Victoria, covenanting covers a range of relationships – between congregations, between parishes and between clergy. Both metropolitan and country churches are involved. Some covenants are longstanding; others have been developed much more recently. The Trinity Declaration and Code of Practice between Anglican and Uniting Churches provides guidelines and ongoing support for cooperating congregations. Christ Church Kensington has been a joint Anglican-Uniting parish for twenty years. The members always worship together and there is no distinction between them. One of the tasks has been to keep the two traditions alive – hard work! There has been heartache, as being a joint congregation has not always been easy. However, the congregation values its ecumenical nature and its openness, flexibility and inclusiveness. Children especially value their place in the congregation. Besides membership from the two founding traditions, members have come from other traditions; there are several Catholics among the members. The increasing gentrification of Kensington has placed the congregation in communal change, but members value the opportunity to witness to the rest of the church. Until recently there have been two clergy, one from each tradition, but currently there is an Anglican priest. In Melbourne, one of the oldest covenants is that between three traditions at Toorak . In this suburb, St John’s Anglican, St Peter’s Catholic and Toorak Uniting churches are in the same street, in close proximity, encouraging a tightly knit community. The Toorak Ecumenical Covenant has been renewed annually at Pentecost for seventeen years. The congregations pray for each other at every service and together each month.

    Harashim The Quarterly Newsletter of the Australian & New Zealand Masonic Research Council ISSN 1328-2735 Issue 49 January 2010 First Prestonian Lecture in Australia John Wade at Discovery Lodge of Research Laurelbank Masonic Centre, in the inner Sydney suburbs, was the venue for the presentation of the first Prestonian Lecture in Australia by a current Prestonian Lecturer. Discovery Lodge of Research held a special meeting there on Wednesday 6 January to receive the Master of Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076 EC, the editor of Ars Quatuor Coronatorum, and the Prestonian Lecturer for 2009—all in the person of Sheffield University’s Dr John Wade. Some 37 brethren attended the lodge, including the Grand Master, MWBro Dr Greg Levenston, and representatives from Newcastle and Canberra. WM Ewart Stronach introduced Bro Wade, outlining his academic and Masonic achievements, gave a brief account of the origin of Prestonian Lectures, and closed the lodge. Ladies and other visitors were then admitted, swelling the audience to 54, for a brilliant rendition of the lecture: ‘“Go and do thou likewise”, English Masonic Processions from the 18th to the 20th Centuries’. Bro Wade made good use of modern technology with a PowerPoint presentation, including early film footage of 20th-century processions, supplementing it with his own imitation of a fire-and-brimstone preacher, and a spirited rendition of the first verse of The Entered Apprentice’s Song.

  • Community Profile Newstead 3462
    Mount Alexander Shire Council Local Community Planning Project Community Profile Newstead 3462 Image by Leigh Kinrade 1 INTRODUCTION Mount Alexander Shire Council has been funded over three years until May 2014, through the State Government’s Department of Planning and Community Development, to undertake the Mount Alexander Shire Local Community Planning Project (LCPP). The project aims to support local community engagement across the Shire to enable communities to articulate their needs and aspirations through the development of local community-based Action Plans. In September 2011, Council announced that Newstead would be one of three townships to participate in the first round of planning. This document has been formulated to provide some background information about Newstead and a starting point for discussion. ABOUT MOUNT ALEXANDER SHIRE The original inhabitants of the Mount Alexander area were the Jaara Jaara Aboriginal people. European settlement dates from the late 1830s, with land used mainly for pastoral purposes, particularly sheep grazing. Population was minimal until the 1850s, spurred by gold mining from 1851, the construction of the railway line, and the establishment of several townships. Rapid growth took place into the late 1800s before declining as gold supplies waned and mines were closed. Relatively stable between the 1950’s and the 1980’s, the population increased from about 12,700 in 1981 to 16,600 in 2006. The 1 preliminary Estimated Resident Population for 2010 is 18,421 . Mount Alexander Shire (MAS, the Shire) forms part of the Loddon Mallee Region (the Region), which encompasses ten municipalities and covers nearly 59,000km 2 in size, or approximately 26 percent of the land area of the State of Victoria.
