  • February 2009-Reserves in Oatley. Part2
    page 1 Oatley Heritage Group Projects. Month & Year of Topic Topic Written & Spoken Presenters February 2009 Reserves in Oatley. Part2 Alec Leach Within Kogarah Council page 2 Reserves in Oatler Presented to the Oatley heritage group's Annual Meeting. Friday 27th February, 2009. Compiled and presented by: Alec Leach. There are six Reserves and two that are classified as Gardens which are located in Oatley within Kogarah Council's control. I will begin with the Oatley Memorial Reserve and Gardens, The Douglas Cross Gardens and then followed by the remaining Reserves. Oatley Memorial Reserve Fortunately for the Oatley people, the area originally used as the railway line between Oatley and Como was not sold off after the line was regraded in 1905. From the south it begins at Neville Street, is flanked by Oatley Parade and Oatley Avenue and is bordered to the north by Frederick Street. There are two playgrounds. A formal one at the southern end, whilst at the northern end, together with swings, is a wooden train that is popular with children of all ages. The Oatley ANZAC Memorial is located beyond the running track and basketball fields. The Memorial was moved from its original location on the comer of Neville and Letitia Streets in 1962. This area then became the Oatley Memorial Reserve. Beside the Memorial are a Canon, Propeller and an Anchor, they depict the three armed services. The Canon is a 25 pound field gun used in the British and Commonwealth armies during World War 11 and was used by Commonwealth forces until the 1970's.
