| Title |
The Torrens Weir in flood |
|||
| Description |
The Torrens Weir was officially opened on 21 July 1881. An earlier timber weir built in 1862 by prison labour had been destroyed by floods in 1872 ; the sluice gates were added in 1929. The new weir transformed the Torrens Valley from a string of muddy waterholes into a picturesque lake, one of the outstanding features of the Adelaide Parklands. - Microfiche incorrectly states this is Bundaleer Channel and the date is 19 August. Negative is dated 19 July 1917, not August. (G Brooks) - See also GN01320A and 1956. |
