A digital copy of a colour photograph of Cooks Mill in Victoria. Located in the Cathedral Range State Park near Marysville, Cooks Mill was established as Cathedral Mill in 1938. Processing Mountain Ash and Manna Gum, it was a major local employer before ceasing operations in 1955. Early settlers initially used the harsh, rocky country of the Cathedral Range for grazing. However, wild dogs and difficult terrain eventually ended this. In 1938, timber workers established the Cathedral Mill near the junction of Little River and Storm Creek. The mill was later renamed Cooks Mill and supported local milling operations through the 1940s and 1950s, supplying sawn timber to the Healesville railway station and Melbourne builders. The mill itself stopped operating in 1955, though logging continued in the surrounding forests until late 1971.A digital copy of a colour photograph of Cooks Mill in Victoria.marysville, victoria, australia, taggerty, cathedral range state park, cathedral mill, mountain ash, manna gum, little river, storm creek, cooks mill, healesville railway station, melbourne

Control of feral animal pests was and is a major problem in agricultural areas, and methods are widely debated. For over a century traps such as this one were in common use where wild dogs and dingoes were a problem, and indeed are still permitted in certain conditions in certain Australian states.
