Tribute to James Cyril Stobie |
Registered Name |
Tribute to James Cyril Stobie |
Significance |
The Tribute to James Cyril Stobie demonstrates the expansion of South Australia's electricity industry during the first half of the twentieth century. Erected in 1960 to commemorate Stobie and his invention, the tribute incorporates a 1924 Stobie pole removed from the Freeling to Templers line, the first line erected by the Adelaide Electric Supply Company (AESCo) during its expansion into country South Australia. This pole demonstrates a high degree of creative accomplishment through its innovative combination of steel and concrete. Had it not been for this design, the wholesale electrification of South Australia would have been delayed. Along with its commemorative plaque, the Tribute to James Cyril Stobie bears a special association with its namesake. |
