Colonel Light Gardens

Colonel Light Gardens is a heritage-listed garden suburb in the City of Mitcham, about 7 kilometres south of Adelaide, South Australia. Planned by town planner Charles Reade from 1915 and developed from 1921, it is based on Garden City principles with a distinctive radial street pattern, generous parks and reserves. Named after Colonel William Light, Adelaide's founder, it is recognised as a State Heritage Area for its intact early town planning and interwar architecture.
