SYNOPSIS

This Website is authored by Bob Padula, OAM, of Mont Albert, Victoria, Australia, and is a project in his Pictorial History of Victoria Research Series

It describes the construction, evolution  and operations of Balloch's Midlothian Bakery, Stables and adjacent Grainstore in Auburn Rd, East Hawthorn (Auburn) . A Chapter has also been included which looks back on many of the author's experiences and recollections during his childhood years growing up in Auburn, next door to the Bakery, from 1939 to 1959.

The article spans the years from 1880 to 1967. Please let the author know what you think about this site - there is a neat little Guest Book elsewhere on this page for your comments and reactions, or you could Email the author direct!

The Chapters may be reached from the Navigation Area in the left panel of each page, which are arranged in chronological order by decade.

The author hopes that you will find this article of interest.
