In 1837 the surveyors blazed their marks on Wurundjeri land between the Merri and Moonee Ponds Creeks, to define Pentridge Village, which became present-day Coburg. Initially one of Melbourne’s first farming sites, in 1850 Coburg became the place for a ‘temporary’ prison road gang, which developed into Victoria’s most notorious gaol, assuming the area’s name. Coburg and Pentridge developed an odd love-hate relationship over the next 150 years. Through three suburban building booms and migration inflows, Coburg emerged into a steadfast working-class suburb, with strong ethnic traditions, which were at first Anglo-Australian and more recently multicultural. Richard Broome has brought Coburg’s and Pentridge’s history vividly to life. The first edition in 1987 won the Fellowship of Australian Writers’ local history prize. This second edition, fully corrected and expanded, brings Coburg into the new millennium. Richard Broome, Associate Professor of History at La Trobe University, is the author of five books on Australia’s ethnic, sporting, cultural and Aboriginal history.

In 1837 the surveyors blazed their marks on Wurundjeri land between the Merri and Moonee Ponds Creeks, to define Pentridge Village, which became present-day Coburg. Initially one of Melbourne’s first farming sites, in 1850 Coburg became the place for a ‘temporary’ prison road gang, which developed into Victoria’s most notorious gaol, assuming the area’s name. Coburg and Pentridge developed an odd love-hate relationship over the next 150 years. Through three suburban building booms and migration inflows, Coburg emerged into a steadfast working-class suburb, with strong ethnic traditions, which were at first Anglo-Australian and more recently multicultural. Richard Broome has brought Coburg’s and Pentridge’s history vividly to life. The first edition in 1987 won the Fellowship of Australian Writers’ local history prize. This second edition, fully corrected and expanded, brings Coburg into the new millennium. Richard Broome, Associate Professor of History at La Trobe University, is the author of five books on Australia’s ethnic, sporting, cultural and Aboriginal history.
