We recorded Patrick's talk and you can see it here on our You Tube channel - https://youtu.be/vfJjZ2iYSo0
In this post we will show you the Post Offices, along the Highway or Railway line in the old Shire of Berwick. Not every Post Office was photographed, for instance the Hallam Post Office is not the collection. In the first post we show all the Post Offices on the Koo Wee Rup Swamp and surrounds, including Nar Nar Goon, Tynong, Garfield and Bunyip (see here) and in the second post we look at the Post Offices in the old Shire of Cranbourne (see here). In the fourth post we look at the Post Offices from the old Shire of Berwick, located in the Hills (see here). Many of the photographs were taken around 50 years ago, back in the days when Narre Warren, Berwick and Pakenham were still country towns.
