On the street where you live … in Surrey Hills

The Surrey Hills Neighbourhood Centre is very fortunate to have a wonderful collection of photos which give us glimpses of what Surrey Hills was like over time. This is thanks to those who have lent family photos for copying and to people like Ken Hall whose photos of the 1980’s are now quite historic. The photos are accessed regularly for a wide variety of purposes and with this in mind and because our suburb is changing quite rapidly, we launched an exciting project to try to capture a snapshot of all of Surrey Hills and Mont Albert.
