Document - PADDY'S GULLY LINE - NOTES ON PADDY'S GULLY LINE
Physical description
Handwritten notes on Paddy's Gully Line. Two long Xcuts put in at 642 ft & 1206 ft. (Sea mine). In the Sea ground and the immediate vicinity there were many claims at work on the line in the early 1860's and also from 1870 to 1872. For one of them, owned by the Poaddy's Gully Co $40,000 was refused. Gold-bearing quartz was reached in this mine at 396 feet, but the water was too strong to allow of work being gone on with. On a separate piece of beige paper is written: Origin of Paddy's Gully Line - See Annals of Bendigo 1862, Page 81.
