Moseley Square

moseley square glenelg

Moseley Square sits right where Jetty Road meets Glenelg Beach, forming the beating heart of the seaside suburb. Named after Henry J. Moseley, an early publican who championed the railway line to Glenelg, the square is home to the historic Glenelg Town Hall, the striking 11-metre Pioneers' Memorial obelisk, unveiled in 1936 to mark 100 years since South Australia's first British settlers landed nearby.

Moseley Square is also the terminus of the Glenelg tram, Adelaide's only remaining tram line, running since 1873 and connecting straight through to the CBD. Durham Serviced Apartments is a short stroll from the square, putting the tram, the beach and the jetty all within easy reach without needing to drive or find parking.

The square regularly hosts major events throughout the year, including the finish line for the City to Bay Fun Run, alongside cafes and fast food outlets that keep it busy day and night. Staying at Durham puts one of Glenelg's most central meeting points right on the doorstep.
