  • 2012 a Record to Commemorate the Seventy–Fifth Anniversary of the Club
    WOODVILLE DISTRICT CRICKET CLUB 1937 – 2012 A RECORD TO COMMEMORATE THE SEVENTY–FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CLUB INTRODUCTION In September, 2012 the Woodville District Cricket Club celebrated its seventy-fifth anniversary. This publication includes references to the early Woodville Cricket Club first formed in 1874, and a history relating to the establishment of the Club in 1937 and its progress to admission to the South Australian Cricket Association District Cricket Competition. I have drawn on two publications that I have previously produced: - June, 1976 titled “ History of the Woodville District Cricket Club Inc. 1937-1976 “ prepared in conjunction with the centenary celebrations of the City of Woodville (1), and - September, 2009 - “Woodville District Cricket Club- Performances, Statistics and Other Club Records: 1937/1938 - 2008/2009” (2). The 75th anniversary has provided the opportunity to consolidate Club records. As a consequence this publication includes a comprehensive record of office holders, the significant achievements and performances of players along with other statistical details of Club performances. Parts II-VI includes these records and represents a collection established, added to, and maintained since 1973. The records and statistics do track the path of history. In some instances the date of creating the particular record is shown. What is produced in relation to player performances and State representation do not include the separate State and A Grade One Day and Twenty20 competitions. The contribution that many individuals have made to the establishment and performance of the Club, and its enduring existence over its 75 year history can, to some extent, be measured by what is recorded in the various parts of this publication.

  • Residential Historic Conservation Zone
    Local History Factsheet: A brief history of the suburb Woodville From left: City of Woodville gardening staff 1963, Woodville town hall 1950, the Brocas c1912, Woodville Road 1976. Woodville is commonly believed to have been settled as a result of it being located at the mid- way point between the Adelaide and the Port. The first building recorded in the locality was the ‘Halfway House’ an inn (near the Woodville Hotel and not be confused with the Halfway Hotel). This Inn opened in 1839. Woodville was formally laid out in 1849. Woodville Road was originally called Main Street and the commercial centre was situated along Port Road. Until 1975 when the District Council of Woodville was proclaimed, Woodville was a part of the District Council of Hindmarsh. The first part of the Brocas was built in c1852 believed to be by Henry Giles. Shipping agent John Newman bought the property in 1854 and, between 1869 and 1872, transformed the property with front and rear extensions including the 2-storey mansion style façade with central tower and balcony. Another large Woodville homestead, ‘St Clair’ (demolished) was purchased by John Bristow Hughes (of Bundaleer Station fame) in 1854. Hughes was responsible for the construction of a number of iconic properties in Woodville including St Margaret’s Church. Under his ownership, St Clair became one of the largest mansions in Adelaide at that time. An underground kitchen and a second storey were added and the entire ground floor was converted into a ballroom. In 1962, Woodville proudly opened the St Clair Recreation Centre, South Australia’s first major youth centre and indoor sports stadium on the St Clair homestead site.
