The Rosanna Golf Club is situated in a picturesque valley where the Plenty and Yarra rivers meet and is a popular destination for golfers. Its’s website provides a good history of golfing in the area. The following are summarised news articles from “The Heidelberger”
July 1966 The East Rosanna Progress Association is seeking the views of Rosanna residents on council's policy towards financing the acquisition of part of the Rosanna Golf Course for open space. The association's suggestion for financing the project will be put forward and a detailed plan of the 42 acres set aside for the open space will be available for inspection.
January 1967 A verbal agreement over the future of the Rosanna golf links has been reached between the owners of the land (Bellereve Estate) and Heidelberg Council. It is understood that the agreed price will be very little short of a million dollars. However, any agreement between the owners and council will be subject to the approval by the Minister for Local Government, Mr. Hamer.
