Belvidere, South Australia (Light)

Belvidere is a district east of Kapunda in the northern part of the Barossa Valley in South Australia.

District Council of Belvidere

Belvidere had its own district council for over 65 years, which merged into the District Council of Kapunda on 23 May 1932.[1] The District Council of Kapunda subsequently merged with others to form Light Regional Council. The original proposal to create the District Council of Belvidere in 1865 was to represent the interests of residents of the Hundred of Belvidere better than they believed could be done by a District Council of Light at the time.[2]
