Encyclopedia > Alma Park, New South Wales

Alma Park is a farming area closely associated with the Pleasant Hills township situated about 15 kilometres to its north. It is a part of the Lockhart Shire Local Government Area. Whilst it is listed in some maps and other documents as a town, it in fact is nothing more than an area of settlement that in some cases is referred to jointly with Pleasant Hills - for example the Alma Park/Pleasant Hills Landcare Group [1]


Other than private properties that farm both wheat and similar grain crops and cattle Alma Park is only locatable by an old Lutheran church that still exists on the Alma Park - Pleasant Hills Road.

German Settlement

Alma Park has close links with the Pleasant Hills community particularly with regard to its Wendish German (Lutheran) heritage when a large group of these settlers arrived in the 1880's. At the time Alma Park was referred to a Wallendool.
