An Avon Tourism regional collaboration initiative supported with funding from the Wheatbelt Development Commission is the first of its kind in Australia. Beverley, Chittering, Goomalling, Northam, Toodyay, Victoria Plains and York are the seven Shires involved with Avon Tourism. A regional map, signage, suitable parking, eateries and accommodation from motorcycle friendly business operators and noticeboards at key visitor information points encourage motorcyclists to “Experience the Avon Valley on Two Wheels”. More info at www.avonvalleywa.com.au/what-to-do/avmcfr Town Hall Roof – Aluminum Walkway Due to safety concerns when servicing the town hall air-conditioning the Shire will be installing an aluminum walkway safety platform on the roof. Approval has been received from the State Heritage Office. Extension of Ski Road into Yenyening Lakes With the Yenyening Lakes being full for the first time in many years it is timely that paperwork to facilitate the extension of Ski road is almost complete. The benefits of this tenure of access include absolving public liability issues for the landowner in having the public traverse private property to gain entry to the ski area, legal sanction for the Shire to undertake improvement works to the track, and potential for support from the Department of Parks and Wildlife, as the responsible entity for the Lakes, toward facilities for users of the area.

  • Register of Heritage Places - Assessment Documentation
    REGISTER OF HERITAGE PLACES - ASSESSMENT DOCUMENTATION HERITAGE COUNCIL OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA 11. ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The criteria adopted by the Heritage Council in November 1996 have been used to determine the cultural heritage significance of the place. 11. 1 AESTHETIC VALUE* The exterior walls of Bally Bally Hall are constructed of solid granite blocks in random rubble construction, with brick quoins to the building corners and around all openings. The front of the building is simple, and decorated with a fine timber finial. Simple timber fretwork, that sits proud of the gable wall, decorates the rear of the hall building. (Criterion 1.1) 11. 2. HISTORIC VALUE Bally Bally Hall, built in 1904, is a demonstration of the establishment and development of the small district of Bally Bally in the Shire of Beverley, which required its own public amenities as the district grew. (Criterion 2.1) Bally Bally Hall is associated with the first European settlers in the Bally Bally district, who established building committees and organised funds to make the building of the hall possible. (Criterion 2.3) 11. 3. SCIENTIFIC VALUE ------------- 11. 4. SOCIAL VALUE The inclusion of the place on the Shire of Beverley 'Municipal Heritage Inventory', and the fact that the community is currently spending money on the place, is an indication that Bally Bally Hall is highly valued by the Bally Bally district community for its social and religious associations. Halls such as this were the social focus for small rural communities, being used for a variety of purposes. (Criterion 4.1) * For consistency, all references to architectural style are taken from Apperly, Richard; Irving, Robert and Reynolds, Peter A Pictorial Guide to Identifying Australian Architecture: Styles and Terms from 1788 to the Present , Angus & Robertson, North Ryde, 1989.

Over the past couple of months we have made fantastic progress on the new section of the Bilya Walk Track. The track has been cleared, signage put up and steps installed. We also cleared much of the above ground growth of Bridal Creeper. The thick mats of corms under the ground will need to be dealt with in 2016. This is such a pretty section of the Avon River with the track running along the river bank towards Lloyd Reserve. Work started on it in August before our Annual General Meeting, and we were pleased the Shire’s Environmental Officer, Sabin Acharya, accepted our in- vitation to join us. Sabin not only helped with clearing the track but also stayed for our meeting which we held after morning tea as we spread ourselves over the grassy bank and soaked up the winter sunshine.
