Bruk Bruk Soldier Settlement EstatePrint Page Print this page

The cairn commemorates returned World War Two servicemen who settled the Bruk Bruk Estate in 1959.

The last soldier settlement established in the former Shire of Glenelg was on land bought from various owners north of Wando Vale, on the Satimer Road. Known as the Bruk Bruk Estate, it consisted of nine blocks ranging from 400 to 600 acres, suitable for dairying and mixed farming. Only four of these blocks were in Shire.
