Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Centenary of Riversdale Golf ClubPrint Page 
A tree commemorates the centenary of the Riversdale Golf Club.
Riversdale Golf Club had its beginning during the early part of October 1892 and can claim to be the second oldest Golf Club in Victoria - only Royal Melbourne has a marginally longer history.
Originally formed as Surrey Hills Golf Club, the Club was located at Mont Albert some 6 kilometres north of its present location. In 1907 the club moved to Camberwell and a short time later changed its name to Riversdale Golf Club, retaining this name when it moved to the present location at St. Johns Wood, Mount Waverley in May 1927.
