Boyagarra townsite is of significance as one of the town sites arising from the Homestead Lands Purchase Act 1896, and represents a way of life no longer practiced; Bush Anglican services from 1905, the school serving as the hall for social events, and a dramatic club in the small settlement. Boyagarra townsite represents an early development in the Shire of Brookton.
No sites visit...no remaining buildings or streets formations
Boyagarra Estate was developed as a result of the Homestead Lands Purchase Act 1896 that permitted the original land grants to be subdivided. Anglican services took place in Boyagarra from 1905. At a celebratory event in 1906, at the Brookton Agricultural Hall, the Boyagarra Dramatic Club staged a one-act comedy. Boyagarra Schools are recorded as School 1 from 1906-1917, and school 2 1917-1928. The school was utilised as the community hall and saw a send off for the World War One locals, before it was moved (School 2)-not in the townsite.

Constructed from 1915, Constructed from 1953, Constructed from 1920
Aldersyde townsite and the hall and church remain as one of the railway siding townsites in the Brookton Shire, established in 1915, the remaining fabric demonstrates the resilience of the community and a way of life unique to a small isolated town.
ALDERSYDE HALL: Single storey timber framed and corrugated iron clad. Horizontal sheets painted, also form a dado to the extensive side verandah at break pitch off the main gable roof. The front has a small protruding entry porch with a gable roof the same as the main roof. MEMORIAL CHURCH: Single storey concrete block with a high-pitched cement tile roof. The front has a small protruding entry porch with a gable roof the same as the main roof. WHEATBIN: Standard CBH facility
Settlers had been in the area since early 1900. In 1915, the Brookton Kunjinn (Corrigin) railway line opened with a refreshment room (tin shed) at Aldersyde siding. Centrally located, Aldersyde was a logical choice for a commercial and social area east of Brookton. Aldersyde was gazetted as a townsite in 1915, and a public meeting soon after, to discuss building a hall. Most of the hall materials came from dismantled buildings in the goldfields. RA Johnson of Pingelly opened a store before the hall was finished. Tennis courts were in play by December 1917. In 1922, Miss Young opened a boarding house, at that time a 6-piece orchestra was formed in Aldersyde. A co-op store added to the town, but it wasn’t until 1925 that Aldersyde had a school (closed in 1968). In 1929 blacksmith and general fix-it, inventor, AH Gericke had an engineering works. In 1943, the first bulk receival bin was built. Aldersyde CWA formed in 1949 and established their meeting rooms in the Aldersyde Hall. The Methodist Church objected to the Aldersyde’s football team playing Sunday games, earning the nickname of ”The Holy City”. The multi-denominational church was built in 1953. In 1957 the railway closed. In 1958, the Co-op changed ownership from the local shareholders and amalgamated with the Pingelly Co-op. A new building was constructed in 1966, but Co-op closed in 1971, and was leased privately as the Aldersyde-Kweda General Store, and finally closed in 1977 (no longer extant).

Stan Wall Memorial Entrance Pavilions: WB Eva Pavilion Tennis Club-White Street frontage: pointed face stone, rendered quoins, and gable corrugated iron roof. Brick addition.
As early as 1925, the 60-acre (24 hectare) recreation area was established at the western entry to Brookton town,under an Act of State Parliament: the Brookton Greater Reserve Act of 1925. During 1926 the reserve stimulated all manner of sporting activity. In June a racecourse was surveyed. The Brookton Race Club had established as early as 1913, and with WA Turf Club approval held the Brookton Cup meet that year in a farm paddock, and annual events followed in various locations. After missing a number of meetings during the First World War period, the 1920 event was scheduled to be special. In August 1925, the Golf Club laid out their links in the reserve, and in November the Tennis Club wanted two extra courts. The Road Board developed a set of rules for the reserve. Subsequent to that, the Soccer Club (1927) and Women’s Hockey Club (1929) established in the reserve. In 1972, the Women’s Hockey Club disbanded but reformed in 1980 to play in the Upper Great Southern Association until 1989 when the team joined the East Avon Association. In 1965, the Bowling Club established a new clubhouse on the south end of the reserve facing Whittington Street moving from their original club on the corner opposite the Club Hotel, where their meetings were held. In 1986 due to increasing membership the clubhouse was extended. Brookton Football Club formed in 1929, now playing in the Upper Great Southern Football League. In 1946 the Golf Club met to discuss their future in the reserve, and by 1948 had a new 18-hole golf course at what is now the Country Club. Brookton Cricket team belonged to the Brookton-Beverley-York and Pingelly Cricket Association, the composition of the association varied over the years, amalgamating with East Avon Cricket Association in 1998 to form the Avon Cricket Association. 1969 Sports pavilion and a new pavilion in 2013. Also in the reserve is the Caravan Park, the Fire Brigade running track and International Rules Basketball Courts.
