Parkerville

Lazily tucked away in the bush in the Perth hills is Parkerville. It's around 27km from the city. Lovely location


North to Gidgegannup

 

South to Mahogany Creek

West to Hovea  

East to Mount Helena

 

Parkerville - Pub

Looking across Owen Road here is the front of the Parkerville Tavern in all its glory. Once noted for its fabulous Sunday Sessions when (in the 1970's), pubs where not allowed to open on a Sunday within a certain radius of Perth city! I'd bet the Sunday trading here is still good though. April 2009

 

Parkerville - Hall

The Parkerville Hall on the corner of Seaborne Street and Riley Road. April 2009

 

Parkerville - Store

Up to the hills! This is a picturesque Sam Drucker's general store in Parkerville. I love this style of rustic shopping. On the left of the building is The Brook restaurant. I espied a couple of people in there enjoying a cold beer. April 2009

 

Parkerville - Chip Shop

Right next to the Parkerville Tavern is this rather interesting looking place. Looks like a little house but advertises fish & chips etc outside. April 2009

 

Parkerville - Old Railway Reserve

This is part of a walking and horse riding trail. The trail starts about Swanview and goes to at least Chidlow. The trail is the land the old railway line used to occupy. April 2009
