Photographs of Perth, Western Australia Home | Locality A-Z | Notes Brunswick Junction Dairying centre on the South Western Highway only 25 kms north of Bunbury and 160 kms south of Perth |

Brunswick - Hall Fabulous picture of Brunswick's Memorial Hall on the South Western Highway. The jacaranda offers great additional colour. December 2010 |
|
|
Brunswick - Highway The main street of Brunswick - the South Western Highway - looking south. In the distance you can see the Peter's factory. December 2010 |
|
|
Brunswick- Tavern Another iconic hotel. Don't they always look so good? Perhaps because a lot of effort went into building them so long ago when they would have been one of the first town buildings to be constructed? December 2010 |
|
|
Brunswick - Post Office Again on the main street, here is the Post Office. Not sure if it still functions as such due to the "Jones Trading Post" shingle. Cows like the three in the picture are all over town, some made out of bits of metal and cans etc. It all adds to the charm of the town and the pride they obviously take in being a dairy centre. December 2010 |

Brunswick - Peters Peter's Creamery Factory has been here for decades. Once upon a time the 3 major creameries had their factories in locations all around 20-30 km from Bunbury. Peters here in Brunswick, Watsonia in Capel, and Sunnywest in Boyanup. December 2010 |

Brunswick - Mooooo And here is the major cow itself. "Cow On The Corner" welcomes passers by on the north side of town. There are many miniatures all over town and beside the incoming roads. Even all the street signs have little cows on them! December 2010 |
|
|
Brunswick - Dunny An iconic Aussie dunny (you can see it in the background in the above "Cow" photo). It sits behind the hall. Not sure as to its functional status but never mind - these buildings are disappearing fast off the Aussie landscape and therefore worth capturing - on camera anyway! December 2010 |
|
|
Brunswick - Town Cows On the main street, opposite the old post office, are these rather cleverly built Friesian cows. They are everywhere (well, almost) - the town has well and truly adopted the cow as its emblem, and as a very important dairying centre, why not? February 2011 |
|
|
Brunswick - Station Brunswick railway station as it is today. A few decades ago there was a very grand two-story railway station here that occupied the site between the tracks, off where those bushes are on the left. This is across the highway from Peters. February 2011 |
|
|
Brunswick - Cricket Club Inside the Brunswick show-grounds, off a bit to the west of the main street. This is the Brunswick-Roelands Cricket club pavilion. In this area is also home of Harvey-Brunswick-Leschenault Football Club. February 2011 |
|
|
Brunswick - Guide Hall Also in the show-grounds area is this rather cute looking Brunswick Guides Hall which overlooks the football oval. February 2011 |
|
|
Brunswick - Last Word on Cows The last word? Well, maybe. This was spotted in a paddock a kilometre or two north of town. It turned my head. Very clever! February 2011 |
