Be a part of the change at Gilles Plains.

LOCATION

The suburb of Gilles Plains is located 11 km north east of the Adelaide GPO.

Gilles Plains is named after the first Colonial Treasurer, Osmond Gilles, a position he held for two years, after which he retired into private life. Osmond Gilles (1788-1866) was born on 24th August 1788 in London. He owned a sheep station adjoining the River Torrens. Early in 1838, this station was the furthest station in the colony from Adelaide.

He invested a large amount of capital in the colony and introduced Saxony and Merino sheep into South Australia.

He died at his home, Woodley, Glen Osmond on 25th September 1866
