West Terrace is a very interesting place to view. One of these days I'll get down there with my camera. Been having a look at some of your other photo's very nice.

‘The Chalet’ - (Waterfall Gully Hotel)

Several German families moved into the Gully in the 1850s. In 1851 Edward Hempel leased land from John Horsnell and then bought it in 1853. In 1854, he leased the 90 acres to Wilhelm Mugge who was a local saddler. He and his wife developed one of the best nurseries and market gardens in Adelaide and within five years they were able to buy the land.

In 1883, they built a two-storeyed, licensed hotel which became a popular tea stop for visitors from Adelaide. Mrs Mugge and her son carried on the hotel until it was leased to Henry Buck in 1904. In 1910 it was sold to W.C. Hodgetts. Inger Hunnerup owned it from 1924 until 1941 when it was transferred to Estelle Kerrison. During World War II it was used as a rest home for American soldiers and then became the Chalet Residential Hotel in the 1950s and 1960s. After renovation, it became a private residence in 1972.

Nice one Ed, I can make your place out quite well, along with a few other landmarks. Was the flight fixed wing or helicopter?
