As an open invitation to collaborate, my major current research projects are listed below. The links on some items lead to draft, usually incomplete, occasionally disorganised page(s) dedicated to those projects; these pages are for review only, an invitation to comment or contribute.
If anyone has any suggestions, contributions, comments or corrections, please feel free to contact me.
Or if you want to add your own project (of course with attribution), please send details.
Continuing problems with my eyesight and, let's face it, just growing old has reduced significantly my ability to undertake research and I have had to prioritise the projects. Also I cannot predict when I will post outcomes of my research on this site.
Major projects for 2025-ongoing
"Logue's" Brewery, Kent Town including an application for State Heritage listing for the whole Logue Brewery site
Central Market Historic Pub-crawl, the Metropolitan Hotel (and web page, ebook)
Great Old Historic Adelaide Pub-crawl (and web page, ebook etc)
The origins of South Australia's pubs: the first publicans, 1830-1850
Pubs and Breweries, 1840s-1990s
Lower priority or smaller projects
The Orwell Pub Project - revived
Towards a history of lager in South Australia
(Notes on) Local Option polls and the "Redundancy of hotels" inquiries of 1918-1921: controlling the number and quality of pubs
Also to maintain and add to the following projects:
The history of the Kent Town Hotel
the Women in Pubs project
Liquid Adelaide, some resources for histories of Adelaide pubs
...and to complete, as time (and eyesight) permits:
The lost pubs of Mitcham (an ebook)
plus a continuing interest in supporting historic research into pubs, pub culture and brewing especially in South Australia.
