Memorial Park Redevelopment

The Memorial Park Redevelopment was completed in 2021, revitalising the previously undeveloped sections of the park to create an inclusive space for residents and visitors to meet, rest and play.

The redevelopment introduced new playground facilities for a range of ages, BBQ and picnic shelters, shaded areas, multi-use community spaces, public toilets, fencing around the junior playground, and an electric vehicle charging station. The existing memorial and formal ceremonial space were retained and respectfully integrated into the upgraded design.

The project enhances the character of Pingelly and supports increased visitation, longer stays, and a wide range of informal and formal community activities, including events and gatherings.

The redevelopment was proudly supported by the Shire of Pingelly and the Australian Government’s Drought Communities Programme.

Latest Updates

The construction fencing at Memorial Park was removed, opening the upgraded park for community use. Families and visitors can now enjoy the new playgrounds, BBQ facilities, and community spaces.

During the final stages of construction, BBQ and picnic shelters, swing sets, fencing around the junior playground, toilet block infrastructure, and utilities were installed. Final works included completion of the toilet facilities, turfing, and finishing touches such as white washed sand and landscaping.

The Old Courthouse has now been successfully leased and is home to The Honourable Florist, a vibrant local business that adds character and activity to Pingelly’s main street and contributes to the activation of the town centre.

Expressions of Interest for the future use of the Old Courthouse Museum were completed, supporting the broader renewal and adaptive reuse of key civic buildings within the town.
