Brougham Place, North Adelaide
Street in Adelaide, South Australia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brougham Place is a street lined with large mansions set in landscaped grounds in the Adelaide suburb of North Adelaide, South Australia. It surrounds Brougham Gardens, (Park 29 of the Adelaide Park Lands), that joins the three grids that comprise North Adelaide. On 23 May 1837 it was named as Brougham Place along with other Adelaide and North Adelaide streets at a meeting at the Colonial Secretary.[2] The street is named after Henry Brougham, 1st Baron Brougham and Vaux. He was a staunch supporter of the Reform Act 1832 (2 & 3 Will. 4. c. 45) and the passing of this act led to the third and successful attempt to found a colony in SA in 1834.[3]
