Geocache Description:


It's a well known fact that all public infrastructure is built primarily to provide hiding places for geocaches, and this example is no exception. Welcome to The Conservatory, a new building in Cabarita Park that serves as an event or function centre. 

This new timber and glass pavilion contrasts with the nearby Victorian style rotunda, which is in fact a very significant heritage structure. The main timber framework for this rotunda comes from the original Federation Pavilion in Centennial Park where the Commonwealth of Australia was declared on the 1st January 1901! For this ceremony, the timber framework was elaborately covered in ornate plaster to resemble an ancient Roman temple with arches, but it was only designed to be a temporary structure, and soon deteriorated. In 1903, Concord Municipal Council purchased the remains and relocated them to Cabarita Park, where it was adapted into its present form.
