  • Bauple Sugar Industry Information
    THE MOUNT BAUPLE SUGAR INDUSTRY This publication is primarily based on the establishment of the Bauple Sugar Industry. In particular it covers the period up to the closure of the Mount Bauple Central Mill in 1951. Information has been taken from many publications and photographs come from many sources. The difficulty will be to give credit to the correct origin of all the obtained information (see appendix at rear). INTRODUCTION Sugar production started in Queensland in 1862 and at Bauple in 1880. The industry went through dramatic changes in it’s early years and certainly the Bauple area was to be a major player in the transformations that followed. Now, there is but one district sugar mill, the Maryborough Sugar Factory Ltd, whereas there were once 36 mills and Mount Bauple Central Mill was the largest at the time. Today there are 200 growers in the Maryborough region, whereas once there were more than 500. In Bauple today remains but 6 cane farm owners. However today’s average annual tonnage of ????? is greater than that ever crushed by the Mount Bauple Central Mill. History will say that the Mount Bauple mill was considered as being in the wrong place and seldom had an adequate cane supply. WHY BAUPLE? The district around Mount Bauple offered the nearest rain forest land for settlers who missed out on Crown land in the two Maryborough Agricultural Reserves. The Bauple district with its patches of fertile volcanic soil attracted the adventurous. Among the first were George Gee and Jorgen Kjerulf Jensen who both selected land in July 1879.

  • Howzat? It's Here Again!
    GUNDIAH & SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES SEPTEMBER 2010 Gutchy Bridge Petition Please take some time to add your signature to the petition for a pedestrian walkway across the single lane bridge at Gutchy Creek, Gundiah. Petitions are located at the Tiaro Library, B&H Rural, Gundiah Pub, and Macadamia House at Bauple, and will be there for the month of September. This bridge is tremendously dangerous for the school children crossing it at commute time, and the community is concerned that it will take a fatality to get something done.
