    Hmm ... Galston Gorge perhaps? - maps.google.com.au/maps?q=galston+gorge&hl=en&ll=...

    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.

    My grandmother remembered that during WWII, pedestrians would walk on the metal arch to cross the bridge.
