hi everyone.went to the old showgrounds over the past couple of evening and this place has quite a history and in the 1800,s the local govenment did some strange things.this site was a graveyard from 1852-1856 and when was the local showgrounds from 1860-1955 and to day is a oval and a bike track.some of the areas like the oval and bike track not allowed to m.d, which i didn,t do.the open areas around the carpark and a long the fence line you are this where the grave yard was.puzzled !, I AM TOO the area is elevated and theres an imbankment and a narrow road below.so i decided to work the bank which is overgrown and full of rubbish.there an old hotel that backs onto the narrow road.this where the rubbish must of come from.lots of old stumps and blue stone blocks[1880s street pavers] at one end is a marker that clearly state [there was once a graveyard here and all graves where moved to other sites]got more pics of the area tomorrow.I ALL SO BEG TOO DIFFER THAT THE GRAVES WHERE MOVED BECAUSE THERES BONE PIECES EVERY WHERE. i think the local gov. place this marker here to hide one of the strange things they did in the past and shut their critics up.i going back to morrow and have a swing and this time i am not taking the dog.he wondered off and i had to chase after him.also when we got home he had a piece of bone in his mouth which i didn,t impress me.dogs will be dogs.here are my finds
