Episode 16 Changing Suburbs: Box Hill - Trish Miller

In this episode, we spoke with Trish Miller, who had been a Box Hill resident for over 60 years, as she takes us on a journey through Box Hill in the 1940s. We explore the daily life on her parents’ poultry farm, the founding of Box Hill Progress Association, and the early history of Box Hill, and discuss the tight-knit community of her old neighbours on Terry Road, the local public schools and the transformative land development in the area. Through her stories, we gain a unique perspective on the changes that have shaped Box Hill over the decades.
