  1. The Tally-Ho Hotel, Clarendon

    Clarendon's first hotel stood on the bank of the Onkaparinga, its back door a few paces from the only ford in the valley. When the river flooded, travellers sheltered under its thatched roof and waited.

  4. Clarendon Bridge

    In 1858 a young woman broke a champagne bottle against the new timber bridge at Clarendon, naming it for the village below. The ford it replaced had tested every cart and carrier on the road south for twenty years. Sixty years later the timber was rotting — the ford pressed into service one last time before a concrete arch took its…

  9. The Happy Valley Congregational Church

    The first Congregational chapel at Happy Valley stood on the site of the reservoir; when the dam was built in the 1890s, twenty-four graves were relocated and the village disappeared under the water. The 1856 building on the opposite side of the road survived — sustained for decades by lay preach…

  11. The Victoria Hotel, Tapley's Hill

    The Victoria Hotel at the top of Tapley's Hill has stood on the main road south from Adelaide for over a century — from Thomas Tapley's first licence in 1844 through sixteen publicans, a major earthquake, a cycling trophy, and a long life as the social centre of the district.

  16. Thomas Tapley of Tapley's Hill

    The hill on the road south from Adelaide carries the name of Thomas Tapley, a Kentish man who arrived in 1838 and planted his family on its summit — founding the hotel and farm that would outlast him by a century.

  22. Victoria School, Morphett Vale

    Named after a Scottish fishing village where Queen Victoria had passed on her first visit to Scotland, the Victoria School stood near Christie Creek for a quarter century — as much a community hall for Morphett Vale's social life as a classroom.

  32. The Union Chapel, Morphett Vale

    Built in 1849 as the first Protestant place of worship in Morphett Vale, the Union Chapel served its Congregationalist congregation for barely twenty years before losing its flock to the new Baptist church down the road.

  35. Columnist Jennifer Hewett took part in and wrote about conference that she attended courtesy of oil and gas lobby

    "The Australian Financial Review’s Jennifer Hewett filed two columns this week from the Australian Energy Producers conference in Adelaide, discussing the government’s plans for a domestic gas reservation policy and a gas tax.

    Labor’s plans for a reservation policy were “creating tensions with the industry” and there was “general confusion and alarm on full display at the conference”, she wrote.

    But somehow the paper forgot to disclose that Hewett’s trip to the conference – where she moderated sessions with the CEOs of Santos, Shell and Woodside and interviewed Peter Malinauskas and the US shale revolution entrepreneur Bryan Sheffield – was paid for by the gas and oil lobby."

  40. Emu Wines, Morphett Vale

    The winery that stood on Wheatsheaf Road at Morphett Vale had a history that stretched back nearly a century before the buildings came down in 1989. It had begun not as a winery at all but as a London importing house — built by a Scottish vigneron from Magill, that put an emu on its label in 1883.

  42. Elite road cycling race Tour Down Under (19-24 January, Adelaide) will have both men's and women's stages on the same day on the same course with the same start and finish lines. The races will start 1½ hours apart.

    Both races will share the same broadcast, both races already have the same prize money.

    This will be absolutely brilliant on the Willunga Hill stage: double the day's racing.
