Horsham Heritage

Alleyway with the ubiquitous supermarket trolley

Twenty-one walkers and three guides tramped up and down the lanes of Horsham on the weekend. Locals and visitors, from as far away as Gippsland, heard stories of Horsham's history - the buildings those still standing and those demolished, and the historic record of the drains sewers and gutters.
They ventured up paved alleyways no-one realised existed - the Hidden Horsham. They heard stories of the characters and personalities who have populated and influenced the development of the facilities and utilities.
The Twilight Laneways Walk was part of the Wimmera National Trust's Heritage Festival.
