Newman’s Nursery Ruins are the remains of a historic plant nursery established in the late 1800s by Charles Newman. Stone walls, foundations and terraced areas still mark the site where fruit trees and ornamental plants were once grown and sold to Adelaide residents. Today, the ruins sit quietly within the surrounding bushland, making it a lovely place to pause and get a peek into the early agricultural history of the area.
