Poet’s work lives on 

FAMOUS Australian poet, Adam Gordon Lindsay has a legacy that can be found in many places, including Coleraine where he rode in the Great Western Steeplechase and other races several times in the 1860s; the 1950 monument is just east of the town boundary on Glenelg Highway and marks the point in the race where he crossed the road.
