English: Transverse section showing the bridges over the [Argyle] Cut to afford a communication for the streets above, across the same, 22 March 1832
From the Surveyor General's Maps and plans. SRNSW: CGS 13859, [SZ 468]. This plan shows the bridges which were to be built over the Cut when it was completed. Convict labour was employed on the Argyle Cut which was made to give access from Sydney Cove to Miller's Point and Darling Harbour. Before the cut was excavated, pedestrians crossed the ridge by means of steps cut into the sandstone. The marks from the tools used in the operation remain as evidence of this feat of manual labour. The rock and rubble from the excavation was taken several hundred metres away to pack the mouth of the Tank Stream as a sea-wall at Circular Quay. http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/public/gallery/rocks/displays/displays-item-7.html |
