 Description of The Tilley Recreation Park

The Tilley Recreation Park was named after the Tilley family, after Hannah Cooper Tilley (nee Steven) gave the 7 acres of land to the community in 1946. Thirty nine years prior to this the land was virtually in private ownership and it was used as a show ground and cricket oval, as well as the hall being used for local functions.

After the grounds were handed over to the public, a trust deed was formed and later they became an incorporated body and many of the facilities were upgraded, firstly the tennis court site was excavated and levelled and over the years many improvements were effected. Prior to that, the present old hall was built in 1916 after a previous hall had burnt down in 1915. Both these halls had been built and used by the community. The lean-to or supper room was added in the late 1940's.

The Golden Grove Show Society was formed in 1911. A show has been held on the site of the Park each year since 1912 until the 1990s. The first show of perishable products was accommodated in a marquee. By 1913 a wood and iron pavilion had been built, a new fence erected and the area planted with grass.
