buildings were constructed on the Methodist church's land. These buildings included a cottage and two buildings used as a shop and a post office. The shop and post office buildings were rented out from c.1900 to c.1940. A hall, noted for its fine timber lining, was built in 1921. A public swimming pool, built with local volunteer labour, opened in 1957. It was extended in 1980 with the addition of a tennis court and in 2001 when gas barbeques were added. The pool is a outdoor pool and is managed by the Caveside Recreation Committee. The shop has long closed but the Caveside memorial hall remains open and is operated by the Meander Valley Council. The Church of Christ formed an organisation in the area in 1909. Prior to this services had been held in Caveside. They built a hand-split timber church building and opened it in 1911. The original building was moved in 1956 and a replacement built. The building is now known as "The Church in the Paddock". Caveside was gazetted as a locality in 1965. Geography Lobster Rivulet, a tributary of the Mersey River, flows through the locality from south to north. Road infrastructure The C169 route (Caveside Road) enters from the north-west and runs through to the north, where it exits. Route C168 (Western Creek Road) starts at an intersection with C169 and runs south-east until it exits. Notes References Bibliography Localities of Meander Valley Council Towns in Tasmania
