    NB - North is at 4 o'clock. Going by the pattern of the roads, I think this is the area on GoogleMapsSatellite -
    www.google.com

    The brown area on the satellite is marked as bog on the map.

    Bottom right(-ish) is "Clonbrock Desmene". Is that our old friends, the Dillons, and The Great Augusta ?

    Here's a "Pin" placed where the 48 is in that triangular pink field on the right above. Note Google map is rotated such as North is facing SE as per map above.

    BobMeade Good spot; you have a good memory! And very thoughtful of Bradfield to wear such a distinctive hat. These two photos are from our SHB set (I will update the caption) and now I'm wondering how many others Dr JJC Bradfield appears in... AB

    Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection I know those books came to State Records NSW via the Bradfield family in 1968 (series 12685) - and as such it seems likely that Dr. Bradfield had a hand in their composition and compilation. From the blocks of granite quarried at Moruya in 1926 to the first train over the bridge in 1932 He had a way of making sure he was in the picture.

    Surveyors have been around for a very long time if this picture was taken in 1948 and they are still around. They have to do their work in any environment to make sure that the job is done right. It is really cool to see what all they do for us as a community. www.stevepalmersurveys.com.au
