1,100?
How appalling. I spend the years from age 8 to 10 in a town of 5000.( 1955-57). It was only 50 miles from the city,but was like the dark side of the moon. I went back this year for a look around.It seems to have changed little,except for a lot of empty shops.
The town is Kapunda,an old copper mining town with a fascinating history. It's where my family first settled in 1870.Many are buried there. And it's STILL as boring as dogshit.
Quote:Kapunda Coordinates: 34°20′S 138°54′E / 34.333°S 138.9°E / -34.333; 138.9 is a town near the Barossa Valley in South Australia. It was established after a discovery in 1842 of significant copper deposits.
The southern entrance to the town has been dominated since 1988 by the 8-metre-tall statue of Map Kernow ("the son of Cornwall"), a traditional Cornish miner. The statue was destroyed by a fire on the morning of 1 June 2006 [1] but has since been rebuilt by its creator, Ben van Zetten.
