The Shire of Talbot and Clunes was a local government area about northwest of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. The shire covered an area of , and existed from 1860 until 1994. ==History== What became the Shire of Talbot and Clunes had its origins in several different local authorities during the 1850s gold rush: * The Borough of Talbot was incorporated on 22 October 1858 with an area of surrounding the town of Talbot. * The Borough of Clunes was incorporated on 19 October 1860 with an area of surrounding the town of Clunes. * The Shire of Talbot was incorporated on 16 November 1860 as a district, becoming a shire on 31 October 1865. After the passage of the ''Local Government Amendment Act 1914'', it was found that Talbot did not meet the criteria of a borough as its rateable income was below £300 per annum, so it was amalgamated on 1 October 1915 with the shire. On 31 May 1965, an Order in Council united the Borough of Clunes with the Shire of Talbot to create the new Shire.〔 Accessed at State Library of Victoria, La Trobe Reading Room.〕 On 20 January 1995, the Shire was abolished and split between the Shire of Central Goldfields (Talbot) and the Shire of Hepburn (Clunes). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shire of Talbot and Clunes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
