Restoration of Hick Hargreaves engine, part of Commonwealth Unemployment "Red Scheme" program. Bruce McDonald (without hat)
Built between 1883-1885, the steam operated pumping facility provided Goulburn's first reticulated water supply. The pump house still contains the original Appleby Bros. Beam Engine, pumps and Galloway Boilers. This site is the only one of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere and is of national heritage significance. The Appleby Bros. Beam Engine is of dramatic proportion and in operational condition.
