Mrs Dudley Courtman in her Chesney caravan, 1952

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Neil Chesney was born into a caravan family and for as long as he can remember he always wanted to build them. His father Alex was a successful caravan salesman, establishing what grew to become “Chesney Corner” at the busy intersection of Gympie and Rode Roads in Brisbane’s Chermside. Alex Chesney initially sold kit caravans that were popular in the early 1950s and was also the Queensland manager for Carapark caravans. Neil left school at age 14 to do an engineering apprenticeship and five years later he began making parts for his father to sell. His first factory space was underneath the family’s Queenslander home, however, demand increased quickly to the point where he had to find bigger premises and moved into an old boat shed at Breakfast Creek in Brisbane. It was there Neil Chesney built the first complete Chesney caravan, which proved to be a little too ahead of its time. In 1960 production moved to a new factory at Stafford as Chesney moved away from timber construction and started building stylish lightweight aluminum caravans. In 1965 Chesney received the biggest order of his career when he was commissioned to build 500 caravans to be used as temporary housing for workers at the new aluminum smelter at Gladstone. He later bought the vans back for a fraction of the sale price, refurbished them and held one of Queensland’s biggest caravan sales of all time.

    See note on Photo. If it is oats or wheat we are in the wintertime as no leaves on trees. Normally it would be thrashed in the Autumn if it was for winter feed ?

    Sharon Corbet Well done; no idea how you worked that out! Flickr is sometimes helpful! Hall Caine, novelist, lived in the castle for thirty-eight years (1896-1931 acccording to Wikipedia above) - manxliterature.com/browse-by-author/hall-caine/ Via Culture Vannin . . .
