A window in a shop in the main street of Eumundi, Sunshine Coast hinterland, Queensland. Either taken from a deconsecrated church or perhaps a replica.

Saddleworth. Population 400.
John Masters leased land in the area from around 1840 and laid out the town in 1853 after the declaration of the Hundred of Gilbert in 1851. He named it after his home in Lancashire, England. The settlement was originally called Stone Hut with a public house operating there by 1846 to service the needs of the bullock dray drivers to Burra. Like other towns in this region it languished between 1850 and 1857 when the bullock drays went down to Port Wakefield but started to develop after that time. Did John Masters have a sense of humour? When he laid out Saddleworth he named the streets – Saddle, Bridle, Whip, Spur, Stirrup, Bit, Curb, Rein and Girth. Growth was slow during the 1860s but progressed with the arrival of the railway in 1869. The railway opened in time for the wheat harvest of 1869. Saddleworth became the coaching terminus for services to Clare, Auburn and elsewhere. Churches, banks, a school and other public buildings soon followed.

1. Down by the railway station (now demolished) Ernest Siekmann built a grain store in 1869. From 1892 to 1914 this was run by Bee and Hill as a bacon factory. It finally became a butter factory in 1921. It has recently been restored and converted into a residence. The names of Bee and Hill are faintly visible on the façade from the old railway line but not from the street.
2. Another butter factory opened in Saddleworth on the corner of Whip Street and Belvidere Road in 1951 made of Mt Gambier limestone blocks. It was the smallest cheese factory in SA and by 1960 the Golden North factory in Laura was poaching its milk suppliers. The Saddleworth cheese factory closed in 1968 and is now vacant. At one stage Saddleworth also had a flourmill built by Ernest Siekmann in 1869. The mill was only operated by him for a few years before he sold it. After several owners it was updated around 1910 with rollers. It finally closed in 1922. The former mill is on Burra Road and Bit Street and was converted into a two storey residence which still stands.
3. A number of fine old buildings still remain in the Main Street which is Belvedere Road including the 1938 red brick neo-classical style stock and station agents offices of Elder Smith and Company. The Elders Office closed in 1967 and has had various owners since then.
4. Turn left at the little park into Newark St. if you want to see the former stone Baptist Church.
5. Further along opposite the current Post Office is a fine two storey former Art Deco bank.
5. Then on right is former Saddleworth Hotel.
6. Next right is a solid bank and residence designed by Adelaide architect Daniel Garlick for the National Australasian Bank in 1878. It later became an English Scottish and Australian Bank.
7. On highway on right is the - the Police Station and the Post Office which were erected in 1877 and opened in 1878.
8. On the right is perhaps the finest 19th century building in the town -the Anglican Church of St Aidan. The land was acquired in 1894 and a structure designed by W.K Mallyon. The church was dedicated and opened on 23 August 1894.
9. The Saddleworth Institute. It opened in 1874 and still looks impressive built in local slate like stone.
10. Across the Gilbert River on left is a round windowed house in Art Nouveau style – rare in rural SA. With a moustache above the window!
11. Next left is the Siekmann and Moule Grain store and general store. The first part was erected in 1859 with a large addition in 1873. This fine old building is now the town museum.
12. The Gilbert Valley Hotel. It was constructed in 1869 with the advent of the railway. In fact it was initially called the Railway Hotel but alas the railway line was sited east of the town away from here. The name was only changed in 1976. Up the hill behind the Museum in Hill St is the old primary school built in 1870 with stone rooms added in 1877.

I took this years ago. I must go back and check to see if this building and lovely old window is still there.
