Report, Examining Draughtsman's Report - Watts River Aqueduct, 20/07/1897
This Field Survey was commissioned by the Melbourne Board of Works and was used to position the Maroondah Aqueduct bridge north of Greensborough at its crossing point on the Plenty River. It incorporated the use of wrought iron water pipes and therefore is of lighter construction than other similar bridges in the district. It features a traverse of the Plenty RiverThe Maroondah Aqueduct bridge is a significant example of late 19th century engineering. A 4 page reproduction of an Office of Titles document.
