  Newstead Park is a significant historic park in the Brisbane suburb of Newstead. The park is located at the mouth of Breakfast Creek. In May each year, the park is host to the commemoration of the Battle of the Coral Sea. A playspace featuring an "Alice Through the Looking Glass" theme is located in the park. The land originally formed a part of the land purchased by Patrick Leslie in 1845 on which he built Newstead House. Source: www.visitbrisbane.com.au/brisbane/things-to-do/nature-and...

  Newstead Park is a significant historical park. There are a number of educational plaques about the history and botanical features of the area called Brisbane Blooms. On one side is a monument called Lyndon B Johnson Place, while on the other side is a monument commemorating the John Oxley landing in December 1823. There are other military statues, including a Royal Australian Navy memorial. There is a prominent statue, that is a war memorial which was opened by U.S. President Lyndon B Johnson. Concerts are sometimes held in the house and grounds, including the commemoration of the Battle of the Coral Sea in May each year. ewstead Park was originally ‘part of a government farm’ as part of the Moreton Bay Penal Settlement. It was then bought by pastoralist Patrick Leslie in 1845, but sold two years later to his brother-in-law, Captain John Wickham. It was the government residence until 1895 when Queensland became a colony. In 1915, Brisbane City Council “knowing that the people appreciated the city parks, stepped in and acquired the whole of the property for the use of the people of Brisbane.” The land was purchased by Patrick Leslie in 1845 where he built Newstead House. It was designed by Harry Moore. There is also an old substation building and electric tide recorder, which you might find interesting. Newstead Park is located on Breakfast Creek Road, Newstead, Brisbane QLD 4006. newsteadhouse.com.au/

  Big families are beautiful. They are like small communities on their own.
