 Beveridge - Victoria - Australia - Travel - smh.com.au
Beveridge is a small township located 42 kilometres north of Melbourne along the Hume Highway which is sustained by the surrounding agricultural and pastoral industries.
Although it has little more than 100 inhabitants, Beveridge is guaranteed a permanent place in Australian history because it was the birthplace of legendary bushranger, Ned Kelly, whose impoverished father, John, settled in the town at a time when the less affluent pioneers were subject to harassment from the wealthy and influential squattocracy.
6 km north of Beveridge is the Wallan Woolshed, where you can see sheep being shorn and herded by sheepdogs, throw a boomerang, dance to a bush band, eat a traditional Australian meal and be regaled with tales of rural Australia.
