Cobdogla homestead
Cobdogla homestead. The buildings are newer than the thatched roofed structures from the original 1846 homestead (see B 7834). A researcher has suggested that due to the water surrounding the homestead this photograph may have been taken during the 1956 floods of the Murray River. However B 27102 shows the flood waters at a much higher level in 1956. Therefore, this photograph may have been taken during a flood in the first half of the twentieth century, possibly during the 1906 or 1909 floods. Much of the land from west of Overland Corner through to New South Wales was taken up by a pastoral lease in 1846 by John Chambers who raised purebred horses for the police and military. It was first settled as a pastoral base in 1851. John Chambers died in 1889

Gunn Street, Eudunda
Street scene in Eudunda. The founder of Eudunda was John Henry Hannan who owned the land that was surveyed and divided for sale. Pastoralism was the first European activity in the area. This photograph shows the Edwardian streetscape of the town in the 1880s. The Nadjuri Aboriginal people named the area Eudundacowi meaning "water out of the ground". A researcher has provided the following information: "The photo in question is of Gunn Street, Eudunda, looking in a south-easterly direction. The second building from the right is the former National Bank of Australasia Limited, which was constructed in 1880. The building third from the right was the first Courthouse and Police Station in Eudunda. It was completed in October 1883. The building at the end was the first Post Office constructed in Eudunda. It was completed in 1879 at a cost of £888. It also served as the telegraph exchange and later, in 1911, it was connected to telephone lines. Every building on this street survives to the present day."
