Restoration Works - Concreting
With the completion of Stage 1, the waterproofing of the west wall and with water no longer seeping into the basement, the RSL applied for and were successful with the 2023 Victorian Government Veterans Grant to completed Stage 2.
This grant allowed us to concrete the floor of the basement, with a storage shelf, and the concreting of the driveway up to the basement, making it easier to access with a vehicle and trailer.
These works included the following partners:
Victorian Government - Veterans Grant.
RSL of Australia (Victoria Branch),
Hepburn Shire,
Creswick-Smeaton RSL,
Peter O’Neil-Contractor.
