Drouin Civic Park

In 1878 the heavily treed land here was purchased for 8 pounds per acre. It was cleared two years later.

In 1931 the land was purchased by Joseph Gleeson, owner of the hotel in the main street. Over the next three generations the Gleeson family used the land for cattle and horses. In 1973 the Buln Buln Shire purchased the land as the site for it's new Shore Offices and Civic Park.
