  1. Limestone laid down 600 million years ago beneath Reynella fed a Portland cement works six kilometres away at Marino — and getting it there meant 52 wooden trestles, some 21 metres tall, carrying half-ton buckets across the southern suburbs on Australia's longest aerial ropeway.

  7. The Crown Inn was among Reynella's first buildings when John Reynell opened the land for allotments in 1854. Robert Hay, previously of the Victoria Hotel at Tapley's Hill, established the inn the following year. Hay died on 20 January 1862, after which the hotel passed through many hands. Opposite the old horse changing station, it was a natural stop for coaches heading south and a gathering place for locals.

  12. The Old Cave — Cellar No. 1, Reynella

    The oldest surviving wine cellar in Australia is a grass-covered mound at Reynella, dug by hand into limestone in 1845. John Reynell built it the year after his first vintage; it outlasted his family, several corporate owners, and nearly 180 years of South Australian summers.

  17. The Crown Inn, Reynella

    Built in 1854 on land sold by John Reynell to his first publican, the Crown Inn was the only hotel in Reynella for most of the colonial period — a two-storey stone building that served as polling place, inquest room, coaching stop, and social centre for the district. It is still standing on Old South Road.

  22. In 1839, John Reynell bought then enclosed an 80 acre section of land south of Adelaide.

    He would later issue a Notice of Sale, announcing the township of Reynella by releasing 40 acres into allotments (¼ to 2 acres), divided by the Great South Road.

    By 1866, the town had grown with essential establishments: a steam flour mill, a hotel, a post office, a store, a school, and a chapel.

  27. Emu Wines began in the 1840s when Patrick Auld established vineyards at Magill, later moving to Morphett Vale where he added a distillery. Emu became famous for its ports and sherries, exporting globally. Hardys later acquired the brand, continuing its legacy. The Southern Districts Workingmen’s Club now occupies the original site. #MorphettVale #SAHistory #WineHistory #hardys #Reynella

  30. Hallett’s Bridge was completed in 1867 to fix one of the most dangerous sections of the old South Road near Reynella. The grade was eased from 1 in 11 to 1 in 18, and a new 30-foot stone bridge built with freestone from local quarries. At its opening, officials, Oddfellows and Foresters gathered as Miss Smith christened it “in the name of the Great Architect of the Universe.” The bridge still stands today, overlooking the old road rising toward Reynella. #Reynella #southaustralia #bridge

  35. 5AN (the forerunner to ABC Adelaide) began on 15 October 1937, transmitting from with in the central telephone exchange.
