History
[ edit ]
Hoddles Creek was named for Robert Hoddle (1794–1881), who surveyed the area in 1844.[3] The town developed thanks to the Victorian Gold Rush in the 1860s.[3] It was home to one of the largest minefields in Victoria up until the 1900s.[3]
The Post Office opened as Hoddle's Creek on 24 May 1862 and closed 1865.[4] It reopened in 1869 (though known as Warburton from 1874 until 1879) and closed in 1967.[4]
In 1916, the Hoddles Creek Primary School was founded to replace other local schools.[5] [6] It still runs to this day.
Sir Harrie Massey , the renowned mathematical physicist , spent his early years from 1908 in Hoddles Creek.[7]
It is home to several vineyards.[3] For example, the Hoddles Creek Estate was founded by the D'Anna family in 1997.[8] The town is also home to berry farms and tree farms.[3]
