Step back in time and uncover the rich layers of Shenton Park’s past on this guided walking tour through its western streets led by heritage consultant, Annette Green. Beginning at Lake Jualbup, we’ll explore how a bushland fringe transformed into a thriving suburb - told not just through its buildings, but through the lives of the people who shaped them. Along the way, you’ll hear tales of early builders, developers, and residents, and gain insight into how social change is etched into the fabric of the neighbourhood.
