Ashgrove History Movie 2

Here's a little movie that we made,
Hope it'll put a smile on your face,
Don't worry - its Ashgrove history.

Turrbal people walked the land,
Traditional owners of Killindarbin,
Don't worry - its Ashgrove history.

Darby and McGrath came along,
Bought the land before the throng,
Don't worry - its Ashgrove history.

Lots of people over the years,
Some brought smiles and some brought tears,
Don't worry - its Ashgrove history.
