Local government area in Victoria, Australia
The Shire of Hampden was a local government area about 200 kilometres (124 mi ) west-southwest of Melbourne , the state capital of Victoria , Australia . The shire covered an area of 2,620.91 square kilometres (1,011.9 sq mi ), and existed from 1857 until 1994.
History
[ edit ]
Hampden was first incorporated as the Hampden and Heytesbury Road District on 28 April 1857, and became a shire on 31 December 1863. On 31 May 1895, it lost parts of its East and West Wards to create the Shire of Heytesbury . On 9 September 1952, the Borough of Camperdown severed from its East Riding. Its boundary was adjusted on 31 May 1977, to include all of Skipton .[2]
On 23 September 1994, the Shire of Hampden was abolished, and along with the Town of Camperdown and parts of the Shires of Colac , Heytesbury and Mortlake , and the area around Princetown , on the Great Ocean Road , was amalgamated into the newly created Shire of Corangamite .[3]
