Appendix - Index of Names 5 6 The Honour Boards of the Adelaide Hills Preface Following the publication of “The Monuments of the Adelaide Hills” in April 2015 “The Honour Boards of the Adelaide Hills” is a separate publication that provides a comprehensive coverage of the Honour Boards that list those residents of the Adelaide Hills who served, and in so many tragic cases, paid the supreme sacrifice in the wars involving our nation. These are memorials that are important to our heritage and our local and national identity. This publication is the initiative of the Adelaide Hills Council. The Honour Board is a record of the names of those “that liveth for evermore” and this project is timely, given the 100 year anniversary of the First World War. In this publication the information on the Honour Board is organised by Town Name and location of the building that houses the Board within that town. The majority of the Honour Boards have been located in Churches, RSL and Institute/Community Halls and Schools. An Index is included which is organised alphabetically by surname and identifies the location of the Board that carries that name. In many cases names can be found on more than one Board. The publication includes a discussion regarding the significance of these buildings to the location and preservation of the Boards. This publication contains a detailed photographic record of each Board and a separate list covers the names on each Board which have been reproduced as they appear on the Board. The reader will note that there appears to be a remarkably individual approach to the subject of an Honour Board, with many different forms across the towns of the Council area, and this makes the content of this project all the more interesting. The publication identifies towns/locations in the Adelaide Hills Council area that contain Honour Boards, and there are the details of the names of those who gave their lives and those who served. The Memorials largely concern the two major conflicts of the twentieth century and most of them date from the years directly following the First World War. It is noted that the proximity of towns and their communities has resulted in some repetition of names between Honour Boards - the index of all names is an Appendix to this document. The passage of time and the wear and tear on some Honour Board has made it difficult to interpret some names. Wherever this has occurred an honest attempt has been made to clarify the name. Whilst some Boards are damaged it is pleasing to note that the majority are in good condition and in many cases in recent times a significant number have been restored by local communities and individuals and given a pride of place within the Hall or School. A rewarding result of this project is to locate a number of Boards which had, because of the passage of time, been forgotten or mislaid and it is hoped that readers of this account may continue the endeavours that have now started to ensure that vigilance continues to preserve this important part of our national heritage. Suggestions have been made as to a method for undertaking this task. Significant endeavour has been made to include as much detail in this edition as time and resources allowed. However, it is realised that the reader will, in many cases, be able to add detail or correct information within this first attempt by volunteering knowledge from their own and their family recollections. Such a contribution to this project is considered a worthwhile and essential participation by our community and the reader is invited to submit any comments to the Adelaide Hills Council. This publication will also be made available on the Council website: www.ahc.sa.gov.au 7 8 Section One Providing a Home for the Honour Boards The work on this project has determined that Honour Boards are located in many buildings in towns throughout the Adelaide Hills. The function of these buildings varies significantly ranging from Institute/Municipal Halls, Returned Service League premises, Church Halls, Schools and Sporting Clubs. Upper Sturt Soldiers Memorial Hall Institute and Municipal Halls The majority of the Adelaide Hills Honour Boards are housed in buildings that fit this category. In many cases it is understood that the Institute Hall and Municipal premises was the first location of the Honour Board upon its dedication. It is noted that from the early days of the 19th Century Literary Institutes Athenaeums and Schools of Art played an important role in the life of early Australian communities. Among their roles was the provision of libraries and reading rooms, but as community institutions they also provided lectures and adult education. “By 1900 there were 1000 Mechanics’ Institutes in Australia with memberships of between 100 and 200 people. Most of these Institutes did not have large libraries, usually having less than 1,000 books. Their role in a country town was more a general focus for the community’s cultural activities, not just that of a library. As well as membership subscriptions, the Institutes were supported by colonial governments and sometimes by local government, usually by land grants and cash assistance. The institution generally had a purpose built building in the town.” 1 1. Source of this information is Wikipedia and from “The Guardian-The Workers Weekly Issue 1526 9 November 2011”. Note that the anachronistic term of “Mechanic”, belongs to another time – the early 1800s. In the United Kingdom the word “mechanic” was a more general term meaning tradesman, craftsman, artisan, working man, working class. An institute is a place of learning, so broadly speaking a mechanics’ institute is a place of learning for working class people. 9 Many of these were solidly built by a community optimistic of the Nation’s future but in most cases are now no longer home to those institutions but are still a strong feature in the local communities and are used for other purposes. Local Government and the governance of the Municipal and District Council in South Australia became widespread in the 1850’s with the passing of a series of Acts of Colonial Government.2 The new Councils worked within defined boundaries that covered a large part of settled South Australia and notably established council areas across the Mount Lofty Ranges. The new Acts established the Council, its revenue and its powers of operation. Importantly for this project it committed its community to a base for its meetings and it operations which necessarily involved an office, halls and depots. Thus these became an extension of the assets of the growing hill’s communities and therefore another place for the safe keeping of its cherished possessions and its memorabilia. In many instances the Councils became responsible for the established Institute halls. Stirling RSL Hall The Returned Services League (RSL) The Returned Services League has, since 1916, played a significant part in the cultural and political history of Australia. Built on the sacrifice of Australia’s men and women in the many theatres of war that have impacted on the short history of our nation its position is embedded in the Australian psyche. The return of the soldier to Australia necessitated the need to commemorate their contribution and to nurture the camaraderie that grew out of the services. Branches of the RSL were established in all Australian States and sub-branches became involved in large and small communities across Australia. The monument to the fallen and the building that housed the RSL became an integral part of the town and its community. 2. Most notably the An Act to Appoint District Councils and to Define the Powers thereof Act No 16 1852, District Councils Act, No 10, 1858 and the Municipal Corporations Act No 16, 1861 10 The Mission Statement of the RSL is: “To ensure that programs are in place for the well-being, care, compensation and commemoration of serving and ex-service Defence Force members and their dependents; and promote Government and community awareness of the need for a secure, stable and progressive Australia.” The core role and objectives of the RSL has been and continues to be to serve the interests of its members, veterans, the ex-service community and members of the Australian Defence Force. This role has considerable involvement in the community through welfare and other support initiatives including, mental health support and aged care accommodation. Indeed one of the key objectives of the RSL is to provide a “respected and meaningful voice within the community and Australian society” and this has meant in some cases a closer involvement in community activities, particularly in the smaller regional towns of Australia. There are currently a number of RSL branches operating within the Adelaide Hills Council area and the relevant halls are noted in this publication as containing Honour Boards and the memorabilia from the conflicts thatnvolved servicemen from the local communities.

  • Shaw + Smith, `Balhannah Vineyard` Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2017 Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia
    Shaw + Smith, `Balhannah Vineyard` Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2017 Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia PRODUCER Established in 1989 by Martin Shaw and Michael Hill Smith MW, Shaw + Smith's aim is to make contemporary, high quality wines that stand among the best of their type in Australia. The wines are made exclusively from fruit grown in the Adelaide Hills, one of Australia's coolest and most exciting regions. Shaw + Smith specialise in grape varieties suited to cooler climates, such as Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, and also make outstanding wines from Shiraz and Pinot Noir. VINEYARDS The distinctive Balhannah site was planted in 2005, at 340 to 380 metres above sea level. It has always shown potential for a single site wine, and in 2013 the team made their first release from the close-planted vines (5,500 vines per hectare). Low yields are achieved by aggressive pruning and pre-harvest bunch thinning. The vineyard has a north-facing aspect and the soils are loam over clay, ironstone, quartzite, and shale. VINTAGE There was record rainfall throughout the growing season but importantly it reduced to average levels in November during flowering. Weather was dry during March, the later part of ripening. Record low temperatures were also recorded resulting in a late, very cool vintage. Flavours are intense and the natural acidity is striking. VINIFICATION The grapes were hand picked and fermented in open fermenters as predominantly whole bunches with the remainder whole berries, with gentle plunging and minimal working. The wine was aged in 500 litre French oak puncheons for 14 months, of which one third was new oak, followed by another 14 months in bottle before release.

Plamen worked with NASAA (The National Association for Sustainable Agriculture Australia) in several capacities, including as an organic inspector and on the inspection review committee. Plamen Paraskevov and his wife Sonja Bognarova grow certified He also helped convert farms to organic production, including a organic strawberries in Lobethal, in the beautiful Adelaide Hills. vineyard, Temple Bruer Wines, and a broadacre farm, AW Go Plamen studied agronomy at the Agricultural University in Plovdiv, Organics, before setting up some trials to start his own small Bulgaria, before specialising in organic farming, through organic market garden. undertaking a Master of Science from Wageningen University in Their first small block of organic strawberries were planted in the the Netherlands. After graduating, he worked on a number of 2010-2011 season, and the strawberry plantings slowly grew international projects funded by the European Union, focused on from 1 acre to a planting now of 25 acres of certified organic introducing organic farming practices to Central and Eastern strawberries. Plamen says it was a rocky road to get to where they Europe. are, and it continues to have its ups and downs, although they are far more experienced now to deal with problems that come their way. From the beginning, all the crops they have grown have been organically certified, and they say they would not consider any other production system. They believe that growing organically is viable enough to be a profitable production system for commercial production.
