  • Mundaring with Images
    There’s more to Mundaring! This month’s Feature Blog centres around Mundaring – The Heart of the Perth Hills Mundaring Weir and the No 1 Pump Station is often the first thing that comes to mind when people hear the word Mundaring. Steeped in history and a little bit of controversy, Mundaring Weir is one of Western Australia’s most significant historical sites and the world’s most incredible engineering feats, built by C.Y. O’Connor in the 1890s to pump water from Mundaring to Kalgoorlie, almost 600km away. The No 1 Pump Station, located at the foot of the Weir, now serves as a museum where you can learn more about the project and the life of C.Y. O'Connor. Surrounding Mundaring Weir is the Mundaring Weir Interpretation Precinct, where you can also discover fun facts about the history of the project via signs and sculptures nestled amongst play equipment, picnic tables and barbeques. Starting at the No 1 Pump Station is The Golden Pipeline, a 650km driving adventure that follows what was, at the time of its completion, the longest freshwater water pipeline in the world. Taking three to five days, the trail follows the pipeline taking in historical sites and natural wonders along the way. For those that would like to stay closer to the Weir, we recommend the walking trail between Perth Hills Discovery Centre to Golden View Lookout in Beelu National Park, providing breathtaking views of Mundaring Weir. Other trails in Mundaring include the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail a unique 41km loop entirely on railway formations.

At a time when the Premier of Western Australia Sir John Forrest had begun to doubt the wisdom of his resource rich but under-developed colony joining the emerging Commonwealth, Kirwan conspired with Perth Federalists, Walter James and George Leake, to force Forrest’s hand. Editor and part- owner of the influential Kalgoorlie Miner, the ‘pocket-handkerchief’ newspaper he had transformed into one of the most powerful journals in the colony, he waged a virulent press campaign against the besieged Premier, mocking and belittling him at every turn and encouraging his east coast colleagues to follow suit.

  • WEIGHT of the CHAIN Biographies of Mayors and Shire Presidents in Kalgoorlie and Boulder 1895 - 2011
    CITY OF KALGOORLIE-BOULDER WEIGHT OF THE CHAIN Biographies of Mayors and Shire Presidents in Kalgoorlie and Boulder 1895 - 2011 INTRODUCTION The following people who are in this exhibition are men, who have been elected by the people, whom they believed would be best for the community and its progress. All were business men who had a passion for politics and who had the drive to create communities that were progressive for a young country. In 1895 when the Municipality of Kalgoorlie was first gazetted, all Mayors were elected by the people for a year. In effect every year was an election year. Under the Local Government Act of 1960 the Mayor could either be elected by popular vote or appointed from those that were elected. The Councils of Kalgoorlie and Boulder retained the popular elected Mayors. During the course of the Mayor’s term that person is the voice of Council and makes sure the best is done for the local government region the he represents. The Mayor is Chairman of the Council, he presides over meetings; guides and leads the community; carries out civil and ceremonial duties such as Citizenship ceremonies; speaks on behalf of the Council; and liaises with the CEO on local government affairs. The Chairmen of the Roads Board and Shire Presidents biographies have deliberately not been included; those men actually took a back seat to the goings on in Kalgoorlie and Boulder. The Roads Board managed all the land and infrastructure that existed outside the Municipalities boarders. The Roads Board managed the Golden Mile and the small communities that supplied the labour in the mines.

The pipeline was completed in 1903 and spans some 560km between Mundaring and Kalgoorlie. The system continues to operate today, and during its lifetime much has been upgraded, replaced and renewed. The main conduit is included on the National Heritage List (NHL) (place ID 106007) which includes pump stations, reservoirs and tanks. Ownership of the various parts of the system are segmented between different parties, with a number of historic non-operational steam pump stations vested with the National Trust of Australia (WA).

  • Heritage List
    HERITAGE LIST The purpose of this Heritage List is to identify places that are of significant cultural heritage value and worthy of conservation. Modification or additions to a place on the Heritage List will usually require planning approval and may require referral to the State Heritage Office. Place records are available from the State Heritage Office ‘inHerit’ database at www.stateheritage.wa.gov.au There are many places of varying heritage value identified in the Shire’s Municipal Heritage Inventory (MHI). Only places of high significance are included on the Heritage List (e.g. high degree of integrity/authenticity, rare or outstanding example, very important to the history of the locality). The level of significance is one of the matters that the Shire will consider in making a decision on an application for planning approval, or in undertaking work on Shire owned/managed places of heritage value. Refer to the Shire’s Local Planning Scheme No. 4 and Heritage Planning Policy for more information, or contact the Shire’s Planning Service on 9290 6740. The heritage places are listed below in alphabetical order by locality.
