The history of Parkerville // Q&A for 20K Subscribers!

4 May

We did it, everyone! Brendan's Odyssey has surpassed 20,000 subscribers! To celebrate this momentous occasion, I'll be answering questions from you, the viewer. I won't answer the questions just sitting around my house, however. Instead, I'll also be giving a tour and history lesson of the suburb where I grew up, Parkerville. The amount of history there was a huge influence on myself, leading to the creation of this channel.

In this episode we will visit the Parkerville Hall, the remains of the train station and station masters house, the old Parkerville school and its cricket pitch, Parkerville/Clifton Quarry, the Parkerville Children's Home and Children's Cemetery, Malmalling Winery, an aircraft navigation beacon, Falls Park, the location of the Parkville Amphitheatre and last but not least, the all mighty Parkerville Tavern.
