The Conran Community

This book is part of a collaborative social history project. It aims to document what is known about the Cape Conran Community that emerged in the mid-1900's at East Cape Conran in far-eastern Victoria, Australia. Content may range from:

Aboriginal and white history before any structures were built (likely to be sparse)
The establishment of the houses after World War II
Stories from the period of their occupancy
Their forced demolition in 1986 and the disbandment of the Community
The legacy and remains of the Community through to the present.
