Nanty narking Caboolture

Moreton Bay stepped back in time on Sunday, August 4 as locals celebrated the Caboolture Historical Society’s annual Heritage Day.

The Regency period (1811-1820).

Penny farthings, vintage cars and costumes brought the village to life, along with many displays, including blacksmiths, bread dough making, whip cracking, bush poets, and scottish pipe and celtic bands.

Antique machine restorations and train rides also entertained attendees of all ages, along with many workshops such as leather carving.

The Historical Village consists of beautifully constructed and preserved historical buildings, including a letter press, jail, hospital, aviation museum, farm, and hotel, lending itself perfectly to taking guests back to a different era.

One of the standout buildings is Morayfield State School’s 1873 building, which consists of a small one room building and had 34 students in its first year.
