Summary

Township of Mt. Barker, from the showgrounds. Mount Barker was originally home of the Peramangk Aboriginal people and the actual summit is possibly one of the most sacred Aboriginal sites near Adelaide. Mount Barker was sighted by Captain Charles Sturt in 1830 and surveyed by Duncan McFarlane in 1839 for the possibility of farming wheat and grain.
