    beachcomber australia Beachcomber this one is pretty mysterious, not many identifying details - unless one of our ship-pros can name a vessel!

    Trainiac Thanks for your suggestion! We have popped it into the database and hopefully some more clues will come our way :)

    This may help the little ferry at the wharf may be this one called the Una investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp... Which ran on the Grafton River

    nugget1958 Terrific id of the UNA (what an odd-looking ferry!) and Grafton Clarence River. Confirmed with the first photo on this page, which shows a bit of the shed, wharf, and trees behind - www.graftonrowing.asn.au/history/ships10.htm .

    Hmm ... Galston Gorge perhaps? - maps.google.com.au/maps?q=galston+gorge&hl=en&ll=...
  • pellethepoet said:
    Yes! The foreground bridge is the Berowa Creek Bridge over Galston Gorge. McDonald timber truss road bridge built in 1892 and replaced in 1937. See - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=194816 The smaller bridge in the distance still exists today -

    pellethepoet Thank you for your contribution pellethepoet, our records have been updated. What a remarkable piece of information, especially in light of the fact that the Roads and Maritime Services determined that it was of great historical significance to the State.

    pellethepoet GORGE-ous ! What a fabulous collection of Hawkesbury River and tributaries photos this is. I love all the damage, crinkles and creases too. Patina!
