Looking back at Gawler’s history through the columns of the Bunyip Newspaper with Janette and Kay from Wednesday 15th February 2023

150 years ago there were concerns about some unusual immigrants, Hares, 100 years ago the paper explained how to calculate the speed of a car, 50 years ago trucks posed a threat to life and property, 25 years ago Pauline Hanson visited Gawler, and 10 years ago “last drinks” were called at the Old Spot.

The Gawler Now and Then image is of Murray St, Lyndoch Rd Corner, C 2000
