Historical information

In 1897 the townspeople of Williamstown held a meeting to decide how best they could commemorate Queen Victoria's Jubilee Year, and after contacting the South Australia Company it was decided to purchase the eleven acres offered by them and to form a park on this land. Trees were planted and the Park was officially opened in 1899. [Source: Gordon, S. 'Mount Crawford and Williamstown and district history'].
