Passengers leaving the Hawthorne ferry at New Farm, ca. 1929

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The memorial arch and park commemorate S. W. B. Hardcastle, a well known Hawthorne resident, who was a former head teacher of the Valley State School. A drinking fountain was unveiled in the park in his memory by the Hawthorne Progress Association on the 15th June 1929. In 1939 the area around the Hawthorne ferry terminal was generally known as Hawthorne Ferry Park, but the local residents applied to the Brisbane City Council to have it named in memory of S.W.B. Hardcastle, a well-known and highly regarded Hawthorne resident who had lived near the park. It was suggested that if Council supplied the stone, the residents would pay for a memorial in the form of an entrance arch. An area of over an acre was converted from freehold land for this purpose and a stone and metal arch bearing the name of the park was erected at its entrance.

    I have been past this street and this house can be glimpsed through some trees.
  • Chris Gray said:
    You can find it on google maps too; they say that the house is the corner block, but the house next door is a carbon-copy, and the fence is more like the one in this photo. Take a look for yourself.
