Old Unley Inn
Old Unley Inn, Unley. According to a researcher, this building relates to the 74th Infantry Regiment. This was the first headquarters of the 74th Infantry Regiment, in the de-licensed Unley Inn at 158-160 Unley Road, South Australia, used from 1 July 1911 until 13 March 1915. The Unley Inn had been built in 1847-48 by William Ewens, who had come to South Australia on the Prince Regent in 1839; he was a publican in Adelaide in the early 1840s but in December 1847 he retired on 1½ acres of land at Unley where he built the Unley Inn and took out a Licence the following year. He died soon after, but his wife Sarah continued to manage the Unley Inn while living in the adjoining cottage. This photograph is from the period between May 1912 and June 1913 when the regiment was known as the 74th Infantry (Boothby Battalion): the drill hall has the title 'HEADQUARTERS BOOTHBY BATTALION', with a smaller sign above the verandah, '74th INFANTRY'. In June 1913 the battalion was redesignated 74th (Boothby) Infantry. On 13 March 1915, the new drill hall and headquarters of the 74th (Boothby) Infantry was established in Thomas Street, Unley.
