Reverend Arthur M. Trengove : SUMMARY RECORD
Records of the Reverend Arthur M. Trengove comprising approximately 1300 lantern slides and glass plate negatives. To a lesser extent there are nitrate negatives and prints. The majority were created in South Australia and document the landscape and his activities as Reverend. Items include images of the following areas; Mid North and Flinders Ranges, Eyre Peninsula (including Cowell, Franklin Harbour, Hissey's Creek, Coonarie Falls, Winnowing, Arno Bay, Port Lincoln), Adelaide Botanic and Zoological Gardens, Port Elliot and Hindmarsh River, Beetaloo Reservoir, Bundaleer, Prince Alfred College, Mount Gambier, River Murray, Mannum and Renmark. Trengove spent time abroad in both New Zealand and during World War 1 in Egypt. Both trips are documented. There are also many family portraits, mainly taken during the mission years in northern South Australia. There are items of interest including a wooden and metal gas lantern slide projector and wooden frames for the slides, used in projection. There is a decorative light projection device with a prism-like light refractor which would have been used for creating patterned and coloured light presentations.

Archer Street
Archer Street, south side, May 21st 1941, frontage of the house is 28 yards. The near side is in line with the western alignment of Cambridge Street. This building was erected in 1940 and housed Melrose House for the Blind. It was built in honour of pastoralist and local government councillor Sir John Melrose who, himself went blind. According to a researcher, the room with a bay window to the left was a formal sitting room. 'On entering at the central doors, one walked through to a linoleum-floored dining room. (Congoleum-floored, perhaps.) At December 2019, the dining room space still exists. I believe that a kitchen was behind the dining room. After entering the central doors, a corridore to the right took one to individual residents' small rooms. Rooms were fitted with a small, built-in cupboard and a heavy, white steel-tubed single bed.'
