SOUTH AUSTRALIAN HERITAGE COUNCIL NEWS 20 May 2021 Meeting
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN HERITAGE COUNCIL NEWS 20 May 2021 Meeting West End Brewery, brewhouse, main entrance, chimney and tank storage Source: DEW Files 21 April 2021 Cummins House C 1848 by JM Skipper. Accession No: NGA 2012. 1850 1 | P a g e News from the 118th meeting The South Australian Heritage Council (Council) meeting was held on Kaurna country, with one member attending remotely via video link on Barngarla country. Nominations for the South Australian Heritage Register West End Brewery Council considered this place after a nomination for the whole site was received from a member of the public and this triggered Council’s consideration of it. The West End brewery (formerly named Southwark, Nathan, Walkerville and originally Torrenside brewery) demonstrates 135 years of brewing on the same site. The brewery was begun by the Ware family who were, in the nineteenth century, well known for their involvement in brewing in South Australia. The success of Torrenside led to its rapid expansion and then amalgamation with the State’s most successful cooperative brewery, Walkerville Co- Operative Brewing Co, after which Torrenside became the Walkerville brewery. All brewing was relocated to Thebarton. The success of Walkerville resulted in it becoming the main competition to the South Australian Brewing Company (SABCo), and the facilities at the brewery were expanded in 1898-1899 and 1901-1903 to keep pace with demand. Given the extent of the site and the diversity of buildings/structures that may have potential State Heritage significance, the Council is considering it in discrete parts. At this meeting the following decisions were made: Walkerville Brewhouse Tower The Council has provisionally entered the Walkerville Brewhouse Tower under criteria (a), (b) and (g) of Section 16 of the Heritage Places Act 1993. -

HURREN, LANGMAN & JAMES COLLECTION Architecture Museum, University of South Australia INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS AND FACTORIES SERIES 254 The engineering partnership of Hurren, Langman and James consisted of Frank Hurren ASASM (1899-1992), William Wilson Langman and Wesley Hughes James ME (Adel), FSASM, MIE Aust, (b1898). “During 1928 Hurren established the first sustained consulting structural engineering practice in Adelaide to meet the small but growing need for more specialised reinforced concrete structural expertise. His practice survived the hard years of the Depression due to [Hurren’s] drive and self-motivation. For over twenty years, the practice of Hurren, Langman and James was the pre-eminent consulting structural engineering firm in Adelaide, highly respected for its innovation and the quality of its work” (Stacy 2005 p87). On 10 August 1956, on the retirement of Frank Hurren, the partnership of Hurren, Langman and James was dissolved. James and Langman continued as Langman and James from 1 July 1956. Frank Hurren studied at the S.A. School of Mines and Industries then worked in Sydney. On his return to Adelaide he worked with both E. Stone and M.S. Stanley, and later, in partnership with Langman and James he designed the structures of many Adelaide buildings, such as Shell House, Elizabeth House, the Bank of N.S.W. and the Savings Bank Building. William (Bill) Langman was Mayor of Burnside 1967-68 and was very active in the Adelaide Rotary Club. Wesley Hughes James studied at the University of Adelaide and became a Junior Assistant Engineer in the Engineer-in Chief's Department in 1922. -
