Summary

Panoramic view of the township of Melrose which is the oldest town in the Flinders Ranges. This town was once called Mount Remarkable. The Adnyamathanha lived in this area for many millennia. The copper mine which can be seen at the right of this photograph was erected in 1846 and after several closures was finally closed in 1917. At one time the town boasted woolsheds, brewery, post office, court house, police station and blacksmiths
