Historical information
The bridge in the photograph is the bluestone bridge at Bulla which spans the Deep Creek, a tributary of the Maribyrnong River. It was built in 1869 and replaced a ford crossing which was built further downstream. Many of the buildings and structures in the area were built from bluestone which is in abundance throughout this volcanic area.
Significance
This bridge is one of many similar structures built across Western Victoria where the bluestone volcanic rock was found in abundance.
