Talisker Mines – Crushing House
As this edition of our newsletter ‘goes to print’ we are in the midst of the start of
South Australia’s History Festival which runs from 27 April to 31 May.
Under the theme ‘Discover a different story’ each region of our State
presents its own tailored program reflecting our regional history.
The Fleurieu Peninsula is no exception covering activities from as far
afield as Myponga to Goolwa and Strathalbyn.
Rapid Bay township during the mid 1900-s
Highlights for our region include a guided tour on the Talisker
Silver Mines near Deep Creek Conservation Park,
book launches on Rapid Bay’s history as well as 160 years of
education on the Western Fleurieu Peninsula and a
Hats & History tour of our region departing from Adelaide Central Bus Station.
