- Bannockburn,_Victoria abstract "Bannockburn is a rural township near Geelong, Victoria, Australia, 93 km southwest of Melbourne. It is located in Golden Plains Shire. At the 2006 census, Bannockburn had a population of 2486.The township, originally named Leigh Road, founded in the early 1850s, is assumed to be named after the 14th century battle site in Scotland. It grew as a coaching stop during the 1850s and 1860s when gold was shipped from the Ballarat goldfields to the port of Geelong. The railway came to the town with the opening of the Geelong-Ballarat line in 1862, but today only grain and freight trains use the line. The township grew around the railway station and a Post Office (Leigh Road Railway Station) opened on May 18, 1863 (and renamed Leigh Road (1873), Wabdallah (1875) and finally Bannockburn (1892)).The township contains notable examples of Victorian colonial architecture, such as the former Somerset Hotel (1854), now a private home, and the Bannockburn railway station (1863).The nearby Bannockburn Vineyards is a 25-hectare vineyard on the Midland Highway, established in 1974 by Stuart Hooper. Grapes grown include cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, malbec, merlot, pinot noir, riesling, sauvignon blanc and shiraz.The town has an Australian Rules football team competing in the Geelong & District Football League known as the Tigers and a cricket club called the Bannockburn Bulls.Golfers play at the Bannockburn Golf Club on Teesdale Road. Lawn bowls are on Burnside Road.On the first Saturday of every month, Bannockburn hosts a Farmer's Market, with produce being sold by local businesses. Included are local wineries, jam makers, plants, baked produce, and meats and vegetables. On occasion, small livestock, notably, chickens, are also sold. Many people attend the event, among them dog owners. It's not unusual for many dogs to be present on any given market day, in fact, it's almost expected. All dogs must be on a leash.Bannockburn is also home to a branch of the Geelong Regional Library Corporation, which replaced the once to twice a week visit by the Mobile Library Service.The central area is populated by small businesses, among them, a hardware store, as well as a Safeway, petrol station, Bendigo Bank, doctor's surgery and chemist.A bike trail is available for those that wish to use it. It extends from the railway crossing, along the highway. Near its starting point is a Rotary Club founded park, with play equipment.Local landmarks include a bridge, some old and distinctive Gum trees, and a local wind power generator. Bannockburn is unofficially divided by the railway line, with locals using it as a landmark to guide others to certain locations.The Bannockburn Lagoon is used for fishing, and picnic activities. It is not recommended for swimming.Council offices, and a Family Services Centre, are located on Pope Street.".
