The Gap, a residential suburb, is nine km north-west of central Brisbane.
The Gap's southern boundary is Mt Coot-tha Park and its northern Enoggera Military Camp and Upper Kedron. The suburb's main east-west features are Enoggera Creek, after leaving Enoggera Reservoir, and Waterworks Road.
Settled in the 1860s, The Gap was a farming community until the mid-1950s. A Methodist church was built on donated land on Waterworks Road in 1873, and nearly 40 years passed before a school was opened (1912). In 1920, soldier settlement farms were taken up, mainly for poultry, but they declined from 42 to eight holdings by 1931. Whilst close to the reservoir, there was no piped water, and farmers had to rely on Fish Creek (a tributary of the Enoggera) or cart water from a tank near the reservoir. Farming diversified into bananas, vegetables and dairying, and vegetable growing continued until the early 1970s. In 1949 the Post Office directory recorded five poultry farmers at The Gap, two dairy farmers, a jam maker, the Stirling granite quarry, and the church and a grocer in Waterworks Road.
Since the extension of the tram to Ashgrove in 1938 housing had grown along Waterworks Road and arrived at The Gap in the late 1950s. There was no State high school in the district, and a site was chosen for one at The Gap in 1960. The local primary school bore the brunt of the school-age population until the Payne Road school (1970) next to the high school and the St Peter Chanel primary school (1972) were opened. The western end of the suburb had the Hilder Road school (1979).
Waterworks Road crosses Enoggera Creek at Walton Bridge where there is the Walton Bridge Reserve with a walking trail. West of the bridge is The Gap Tavern and The Gap Village shopping centre where the supermarket and 22 shops plus professional offices are found. Further west are the high school and the Uniting (formerly Methodist), Anglican, Baptist and Presbyterian churches. The Catholic church and school are to the north, off Chaprowe Road. In November 2008 a severe storm saw a number of houses in the Gap lose their roofs.
In 2014 the Brisbane City Council approved the first two stages of the controversial 10-stage, 980 home residential development on Leavitt Road near Upper Kedron by Western Australian based developer Cedar Woods. The planned new suburb between Upper Kedron and The Gap was located on 227 ha of cattle scrub and bushland.

Goodna, an outer eastern suburb of Ipswich, is on the south side of the Brisbane River (opposite Priors Pockett, Moggill), 13 km from the centre of Ipswich. Its eastern boundary is the Woogaroo Creek, and when the village site for Goodna was proclaimed in 1856 it was known as Woogaroo.
The Brisbane River was explored by John Oxley as far upstream as Goodna in 1824 and again by Edmund Lockyer in 1825. There are extensive beds of sandstone (the Woogaroo Subgroup) at Goodna, and Commandant Patrick Logan had building material quarried there in 1826. Stone was again quarried for the 1880s building boom.
Agricultural settlement moved inland along the Brisbane River valley and the Goodna village was allocated a post office in 1862. It was on the Ipswich – Brisbane telegraph link by late 1864. A Congregational church was opened in 1863 and a primary school in 1870.
When the railway line from Ipswich to Brisbane was opened in stages during 1874-75, Goodna was one of the original stations; in fact, a ceremony for turning the first sod was held in Goodna in 1873.
Apart from the usual farm occupations and tradespeople in a country town, Goodna had the Woogaroo asylum (site reserved 1861), coal mining to the west and quarrying. A quarry in Stuart Street supplied stone for a new Catholic church (1881) designed by Andrea Stombuco. Named St Patrick's, the church was renamed St Francis Xavier in 1924, and it is listed on the Queensland heritage register. A former Sisters of Mercy convent (1911) and a primary school (1910) adjoin it. The church became the nucleus of a new village, up from the flood-prone river bank.
There were also several friendly societies and Goodna Jockey Club. The racecourse was east of the present Gailes railway station, indicating that Goodna extended well beyond its present boundary which runs along Woogaroo Creek. Goodna's main civic precinct is along Church Street, including the Presbyterian church (1915, demolished in controversial circumstances in 2006) at the north end, the Catholic church, the war memorial, several heritage houses and the Police barracks. A school of arts was burnt down.
In 1924 the sporting community formed a local golf club, choosing land next to the railway line in the direction of Brisbane. It is now the Gailes golf course, immediately west of the former racecourse. Postwar urbanisation of the fringe of metropolitan Brisbane, along with urbanisation along the railway east of Ipswich, positioned Goodna as a location for the Westside Christian College (1977), a P-12 school with an enrolment of over 780 by 2002. The Ipswich motorway brought vehicular commuting to Goodna, and a drive-in shopping centre (1987) was built away from it, but close enough to be within earshot. It has a supermarket and 48 shops.
Whilst the Catholic church is the architecturally notable building, there were four Protestant congregations all with their own buildings. Hotels have not survived in their original numbers, only the Royal Mail remaining. The Woogaroo asylum is now the John Oxley Hospital in Wacol.
Goodna has the Woogaroo Creek and smaller streams that pass through its built-up area. When the Brisbane River flooded in January 2011 its waters covered a swathe of the Ipswich Motorway and three tongues of lower-lying land. These included the shopping centres west of Queens Street, the floodway east of the (high and dry) Catholic school, and the floodplain on the Woogaroo Creek (including adjacent houses). About 300 houses were flooded.

"May there not arise, perhaps in another generation, architects who — appreciating the influence unconsciously received — will learn consciously to direct it?" Hugh Ferriss, The Metropolis of Tomorrow (1928)

St Mark's Church of England is a smart rendered brick church which stands proudly on a prominent block on the corner of the busy thoroughfares of Burke and Canterbury Roads in the leafy inner eastern suburb of Camberwell.
St Mark's Parish was first established in 1912, as ribbon housing estates and developments were established along the Burke Road tramline. In 1914, a church hall, designed by Louis Reginald Williams and Alexander North, was built to be used for all church services and any parish activities on a temporary basis. The temporary accommodation lasted for fourteen years, until St Mark's Church of England was built between 1927 and 1928, to the design specifications of noted local architect Rodney Howard Alsop. Mr. Alsop was a significant and prolific contributor to the Arts and Crafts movement in Australia. St Mark's Church of England is an interesting building as it has been designed in rather imposing Gothic design, and yet it is heavily influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement, no doubt as a result of the architect's passion for the design movement. The foundation stone was laid in 1927 and the building opened in July of the following year. During the post Great War era, there was a war memorial movement that influenced architectural design throughout Australia. The movement was at its peak in the 1920s, so a key feature of the planning of St Mark's Church of England was the inclusion of a war memorial within the church building. This was achieved by way of a chapel which was dedicated to the memory of the men of the parish who died during the Great War (1914 - 1918). St Mark's Church of England was completed during the one construction period and the building has never been altered architecturally since. The design of St Mark's includes an elegant broach spire, and use of stucco rendering and minimal ornamentation. There are interesting internal aspects, including the octagonal baptistery and the placing of the square chancel behind the altar.
St Mark's Church of England also features the largest collection of stained glass windows created by the husband and wife artistic team of Christian and Napier Waller outside of the National War Memorial in Canberra. The collection of stained glass at St Mark's dates from the 1930s through to the mid Twentieth Century. Napier Waller's "The Transfiguration", which was installed in 1952, is considered by many to be one of his best stained glass works.
Rodney Howard Alsop (1881-1932) was born at Kew, then an affluent borough just outside Melbourne. He was the eighth child of John Alsop, a trustee-manager to the State Savings Bank of Victoria, and his wife Anne. Rodney showed great artistic capabilities as a young child. Poor health as a child meant he had periods of convalescence which allowed him to develop these skills still further. As a young teenager he worked on Saturday mornings for the Melbourne architects firm of Hyndman and Bates, which helped develop his passion for architecture. In 1899 to he went with his family on a tour of Europe where he learned about English church and domestic architecture. On his return to Melbourne in 1901 he was articled with Hyndman and Bates and in 1906, after admission to the Royal Victorian Institute of Architects, he entered into an architectural partnership with F. L. Klingender, with Rodney as the true designer. In the early 1920s he joined architects Kingsley Henderson and Marcus Martin to form a practice that created the distinctive Temperance and General Mutual Life offices in several major cities. From September 1924 until 1931, when he joined A. Bramwell Smith, he practiced alone. Mr. Alsop was better known for his domestic architecture designs and those of Footscray Park and in 1932 his design of the Winthrop Hall in the Hackett Buildings at the University of Western Australia was awarded the bronze medal by the Royal Institute of British Architects. St Mark's Church of England is his only known church design. Mr. Alsop was also a respected designer of furniture and shared a skill in landscape design with his wife Dorothy Hope, daughter of Sir Nicholas Lockyer, whom he had married in June 1912 at Toorak. The pair only ever had one child, who died in 1915. Mr. Alsop died suddenly in 1932 as a result of bronchitis and asthma, an ailment he had suffered all his life.
Sir William Powell’s Almshouses are situated on the north side of the churchyard of All Saints’ parish church, in Fulham. They were founded and endowed by Hereford MP and owner of nearby Munster House, Sir William Powell, in 1680 for twelve poor widows. The almshouses were rebuilt in 1793, and again in 1869. They are built of light brick and stone, of Gothic design, and ornamented with carved architectural details.
A fascinating report, in two sections the first being a photographic record of the use of the roundel within the then LT system and secondly, a brief analysis and recommendations for discussions to help provide "new and coherent directives to the various departments" in terms of the use of the roundel. It is not dated but I would say that c1980 seems right as Sir Peter Masefield was only chairman of LTE from 1980 until 1982.
The device, previously known as the 'bulls-eye' or 'bar and circle' has been associated with London's transport since its introduction on Underground station platforms in 1908 and over the decades not only has it become synonymous with the city and its transport but it has proved to be a useful and adaptable symbol for multiple uses. In fact, as this report notes, some applications were seen as 'functions for which it was not designed' - the report singles out its use as a component part of directional signs as an example.
The photographs show the numerous styles and applications of the symbol across London Transport's stations (both rail and bus), train and bus fleet, its premises, stationery and 'miscelleanous' uses such as the new London Transport Museum. The discussions following the recommendations where to see significant changes in the design and management of the roundel through new corporate and design standards and in the 1980s and early 1990s many of the signs seen here would be swept away - some I recall 'salvaging' for the LT Museum Collection including some that perhaps it would have been more appropriate to keep in context. Possibly the largest 'clean sweep' was around bus stops with the new design replacing every single type of post and flag across the whole of London; arguably the bus stop 'estate' had become the most untidy.
Interestingly the discussions do note that conservation (p.37) is of importance in considering replacement and indeed the report mentions there would be merit in replacing some already 'lost' signs at specific locations. This did not stop some rather enthusiastic 'purging' in coming decades and indeed in my role in London Underground, from 2001 - 2017, the team I was part of actually spent some time replicating various 'lost' types and styles of sign for heritage sensitive locations that we felt had been 'a step too far' in the past! The main drift is that expertise is needed, that applications should be considered and designed in accordance with their merits and "roundel useage is diversified and consistently inconsistent".
