I love the "old bits of Mt Barker lovely old buildings , not keen on the housing development , they don't need KFC or HJ they have Mc Donald's that's enough for one area . Strathalbyn is a beautiful little town I hope they don't ruin that one also . I do realise suburbia is spreading and the population growing .

I agree, Strath is a wonderful town, probably a bit too isolated to be overrun; Mt Barker has the freeway exit.
