Frewville Florist
Frewville, South Australia
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
Frewville (34°56'S 138°37'E) is a small suburb of 2,000 people located in the South Australian city of Adelaide. It is located three kilometres South-east of Adelaide's central business district (CBD). The name Frewville is taken from an early settler James Frew. James Frew arrived in Adelaide on the Lady Bute in 1839. Frewville is in the local government area of the City of Burnside It has a triangular layout, bounded on the north by Flemington Street, the east by Conyngham Street, and the south-west by Glen Osmond Road. Frewville was originally part of the farming land originally sold to William Giles — this land is now known as the suburb of Fullarton. In early maps Frewville is shown to be on both the north-eastern and south-western sides of Glen Osmond Road. In 1853 James Frew paid 2,200 pounds for the 130 acre allotment after Glen Osmond Road was cut through the middle of the Section. Frewville was originally used for the grazing of horses by the early colonists, but the village of Frewville was laid out in 1854 in Section 265. In 1855 a blacksmith set up on the corner closest to Adelaide. In 1855 the Frewville Inn was established on Glen Osmond Road. In the next few years a weighbridge was established by the Hollard family - whose name is remembered as one of the streets in Frewville. There was at about this time a single large two storey wooden villa house that was set well back from Glen Osmond Road. Tall pines were planted along Glen Osmond Road. In 1881 most of Frewville was then subdivided into the property boundaries that exist today. The suburb was populated by the "new" trades-people of the day - electricians, gas fitters and the like. In the 1930s Frewville was "landmarked" by the unusual advertising of a car wrecking yard on Glen Osmond Road. The car body of a Model "T" Ford was wedged high up in the branches of a tree. In the 1960s and 1970s the national freight carrier IPEC housed its main office and distribution centre at Freville. The building has now been subdivided into offices. On the northern side of the suburb, in the Glenside hospital, a chemical research company built a large 2 story building in Flemington Street. This building caught fire sometime in the 1980s, and now is the headquarters for the Royal District Nursing Society, a community-based nursing service. The McDonald's restaurant on Glen Osmond Road was one of the first McDonald's restaurants in Adelaide.
