Work is soon to begin to renovate the historic day basin at Daylesford’s Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens.

The Day Basin, which historically served as Daylesford’s town reservoir, is set to be transformed into an attractive water feature for the popular local gardens.

The Basin is located at the base of the historic Pioneer Memorial Tower near the Wombat Hill car park.

The project has been championed by the Friends of Wombat Hill Botanic Garden who are providing some of the funding towards the project.

The Victorian State Government’s Regional Infrastructure Fund and the Hepburn Shire Council are also helping to fund the project which is a key one for the Friends group.
