Interview on 6PR

I was interviewed on News Talk 6PR 882 in my capacity as President of the Mount Lawley Society on the history of Menora.

Have a listen and learn about the magnificent art deco homes in Menora, the garden city movement of the early to mid 20th century, Perth’s night carts and the ‘Battle of Learoyd Street’.

This election you can elect Paul Collins who has a strong passion for the Lawley Ward and a brilliant knowledge of our local history.
