AlbanyRegionDVD4 MtBarker
Mt Barker is situated in the centre of the original Plantagenet district, which stretched from the Southern coast between Two Peoples Bay and Cape Edward, to the west of Wilsons Inlet and, northwards as far as Lake Katherine near Tenterden.
How the Plantagenet name was given has been a mesmerising mystery. Perhaps this presentation should have been called The Plantagenet Region.
Some say the wildflower species of broom plant said to be growing in the area, others say Captain Stirling was continuing Captain Vancouvers decision to honour the Royal Family, which claimed to be of Plantagenet blood.
Mt Barker was popularly known for Apples between 1910 and 1960, today it is largely known for its wines.
The Old Bush Inn was established in 1860 by early settler William C Cooper.
Main couriers changed horses here and it was a welcome resting place between Albany and Kojonup. Business was affected by the opening of the railway in 1899, and the inn was delicenced after the Plantagenet Hotel was opened in 1914.
Notable buildings in the town centre include All Saints Church built in 1900, and the
Plantagenet Hotel which is a prominent main street landmark.
The old Police Station Museum, built in 1867-68 by a convict road party it originally consisted of living quarters, coach house and stables for the police horses.
Interestingly they forgot to build a lockup which meant that prisoners had to be tied to the kitchen table or to a log outside.
Saint Werburgh's Church. In 1872 Egerton-Warburton's eldest brother, who was the Squire of Arley Hall and the rector of Northwich, sent £500 for the building of the church on the property. The result was a church of great vernacular originality.
The ironwork was made on the family forge, the walls were made of a mixture of gravel, straw and clay, the font had been used for grinding flour and the roof was designed by Egerton-Warburton who also did all the plastering.
The church is located on St Werburgh's Road, on a hill above the Hay River.
Below the church are the remains of the Hay River Bridge (now no more than a few old pit sawn timbers) which was built in 1858 and used continuously until 1968.
The Albany Region has over 50 wineries and these produce some of the finest wines in Australia. Many of the red and white varieties have achieved international recognition.

FREEZE! I'm Ma Baker - put your hands in the air,
gimme all your money
- This is the story of Ma Baker, the meanest cat
from ol' Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
In old Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
She really moved them down
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
She was the meanest cat
Oh she was really tough
She left her husband flat
He wasn't tough enough
She took her boys along
'cos they were mean and strong
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
They left a trail of crime
Across the U.S.A.
And when one boy was killed
She really made them pay
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
she met a man she liked
she thought she'd stay with him
one day he formed with them
they did away with him
she didn't care at all
just didn't care at all
- Here is a special bulletin.
Ma Baker is the FBI's most wanted woman.
Her photo is hanging on every post office wall.
If you have any information about this woman,
please contact the nearest police station...
- Don't anybody move! The money or your lives!
One day they robbed a bank
it was their last foray
the cops appeared too soon
they couldn't get away
and all the loot they had
it made them mighty mad
and so they shot it out
Ma Baker and her sons
they didn't want to hang
they died with blazing guns
and so the story ends
of one who left no friends
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die

Superstorm unleashes havoc across Australia
Superstorm unleashes havoc across Australia
One of the biggest storms in 50 years brought tearing winds reaching a terrifying 140km per hour in some locations.
Twin tornadoes were blamed for yesterday’s weather chaos as forecasters warned South Australia had only seen half the rain expected. A flood emergency has been declared for the town of Auburn, north of Adelaide, with a nearby dam bursting.
Thousands are without power in the Adelaide Hills as ferocious winds smash the state, causing storm surges and flooding along the coastline.
SA Power Networks has warned more homes could lose power, with 9000 already customers cut off at Mt Barker and other areas in the Adelaide Hills.
The outages come as electricity has been restored to the Upper Eyre Peninsula.
Serious flooding has been experienced at various locations, including Birkenhead, where rising waters has forced the closure of the Birkenhead Bridge.
Emergency services have drained a dam in the Barossa Valley after it burst its banks and sent water gushing towards the town of Greenock.
A large hole formed in a wall of the 20-megalitre dam, off Dommenz Rd, allowing water to rush towards Greenock Creek, which flows through the centre of the town.
About 120 CFS and SES volunteers converged on Greenock just after 11am to protect houses and businesses from potential flooding.
Light Group Officer Randal Searle said there were early concerns that homes would be inundated.
The Hutt River at Clare, north of Adelaide, overflowed, with locals reporting about half a metre of water over a section of the Horrocks Highway, which has been closed off.
Downed trees and power lines are blocking roads and flood warnings were issued for five states and the ACT, with the worst of the wild weather still on the way.
There have been power outages in Tasmania’s northwest as strong winds and heavy rain lash the state.
The remnants of a deep low pressure system which lashed South Australia yesterday are currently passing over Tasmania.
More than 1500 are without power in the areas of Bagdad, Bridgewater, Brighton and Pontville due to a power pole being down.
There are reports of trees coming down onto roads at St Marys.
Tasmanian Police have urged motorists to drive to the conditions and look out for hazards and debris on the roads.
The “catastrophic” superstorm that left the entire state without power is expected to return with a vengeance, moving east through the south coast of Australia in the next 24 hours, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
SA was left in total blackout for hours yesterday evening — causing travel chaos, hospital terror and reported looting of homes. Back-up generators at an Adelaide hospital failed during the outage, forcing 17 patients to be transferred to another hospital, many breathing with the help of manual respirators as they were moved.
Roofs were torn from homes overnight as gale-force winds, heavy rain and thunderstorms lashed SA and parts of Victoria last night.
The once-in-50-year storm as already hit parts of Victoria and will move into NSW and Tasmania today. It is expected to unleash again tonight, with havoc forecast across the country.
BoM senior meteorologist Craig Burke said a weather event of this size and intensity was unusual, especially when it affected so many locations.
“It’s extremely rare to see a low of this much pressure and intensity,” he said. “It’s fair to say it’s going to get extremely nasty again.”
LOOTING ‘DISGUSTING AND REGRETTABLE’
As the “worst storm in decades” struck the country with force, South Australia was plunged into darkness and triple-0 went down in isolated parts of the state.
SA Premier Jay Weatherill insisted it was not South Australia’s reliance on renewable energy that led to the blackout, as some have suggested.
“This was not a renewable energy event,” he said, saying it was a “catastrophic weather event” that forced the whole electricity network to shut down.
The Premier said powerful wind gusts and thunderstorms smashed 22 electricity transmission stations near Port Augusta at 3.48pm yesterday, and the toppled towers were followed by a lightning strike, which triggered a safety shutdown.
“This is a catastrophic natural event which has destroyed our infrastructure,” he said in a press conference this afternoon. “These are events the Director of the Bureau of Meteorology has never seen in his whole career.
“There is no infrastructure that can be developed that can protected you against catastrophic events that take out three pieces of infrastructure.”
BoM regional director John Nairn said the state was hit by an extremely vigorous front connected to a very powerful low, with strong wind gusts bringing down trees and towers.
He said Adelaide was now entering a lull but it would be short-lived before the system reintensifies throughout the afternoon and evening.
