Soldiers relaxing in the barracks, Bells Paddock, Enoggera training camp, 1916

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Enoggera Barracks (also known as Gallipoli Barracks) is an Australian Army base in the northwestern Brisbane suburb of Enoggera in Queensland. It was officially established in the early 20th century when the area was used for field training, although the area was used by military units as far back as the mid-19th century. Since then it has been developed into a modern military base, which is now home to units of the 7th and 11th Brigades as well as the headquarters of the 1st Division and the 16th Aviation Brigade.

Driving on the northern beach towards Southport, 1917

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    One of the beaches near Southport is the Main beach. While other suburbs snatch their names from exotic Aboriginal meanings or English seaside villages, Main Beach is far more literal. Situated at the northern end of the Gold Coast, Main Beach was so named as it was the main surf beach to the town of Southport. But while its name may be obvious, its hidden gems are far more exciting for this is one of the coast’s areas that celebrates something old and something new in style. A highlight of a visit here is to the beach itself, where the old bathing pavilion, Pavilion 34 to be precise, has been reincarnated as a casual beach café complete with Chiko rolls, potato scallops, pineapple fritters, and fish and chips. The old male and female change pavilions are still here and there are loads of retro photos to remind you of the Main Beach of old. This bathing pavilion sits next to the Southport Surf Club, the first to make its mark on the Gold Coast in 1936 and right next to a sprawling shady park which is perfect for oceanfront picnics.

    Haystacks with fences? Dairy farm?
  • artpease said:
    My question exactly about those haystacks. Probably for beef cattle. Not sure why the fences around the stacks, as all the fields themselves seem to be fenced.
  • artpease said:
    Oops! I see that there are several haystacks within one fenced field.
  • pgcosmin said:
    The fences were protecting the hay while the cattle grazed there. The hay was for winter time.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called HAYSTACKS, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
