Fairfield - Alphington, though no longer in the service area of Yarra Plenty Regional Library, is still of interest to us historically as it falls in the past boundary of the City of Heidelberg. Local historian and keen photographer Kevin Patterson has some knowledge of the workings of the former Amcor Paper mill and was able to get special access to document the factory before its demise.
The former factory site at Alphington is set for a development into a new mini suburb across the 16 hectare site near the Yarra River.
An album of his photos has been added to the Yarra Plenty Local History Flickr site.
