The series consists correspondence, newspaper clippings, maps, diagrams and the original manuscript of 'The History of Tower Hill to 1892' by MC Downes.This series commemorates the opening of Tower Hill Wildlife Reserve on Friday 19 November 1971.Tower Hill was declared Victoria's first National Park in 1892, in an attempt to halt the decline of the once majestic volcano. However, grazing, crop growing, quarrying and rubbish dumping continued and took their toll. By the 1950s the hills and islands were bare and little wildlife remained. Tower Hill was declared a State Game Reserve in 1961.
