Coolup

A hamlet between Pinjarra and Waroona - about 100 kms south of Perth


North to Pinjarra

 

South to Waroona

     
 

Coolup - Garage

The old Coolup service station on the South Western Highway. Like just about in all the smaller towns along this road, so many have closed down.  December 2010

 

Coolup - Church

Travelling south from Pinjarra, take a right turn off the highway to go down into the Coolup townsite. One of the first buildings to be seen is this church on the right side of the road.  December 2010

 

Coolup - Road

A view a little bit further on towards the townsite. Nice rural road. Up there in the distance is the Coolup store. December 2010

 

Coolup - Store

The Coolup Store was (as the building says) established in 1900. Not a bad innings! The store doubles up as the post office. The store can easily be seen when passing through on the Australind train on the nearby railway but you'd never see it travelling by road unless you took the time to detour into the townsite.  December 2010

 

Coolup - CWA Hall

Most towns down this way have a Country Women's Association (CWA) Hall and Coolup is no exception so here it is! December 2010
