[edit]
Description
English: Creator: Unidentified. Queenslander (Brisbane, Qld. : 1866-1939)

Location: Ingham, Queensland; Lat/long: -18.650909,146.154587
Description: The hospital ward is full of flowers and greenery. An unidentified woman is confined to bed with a nurse sitting by her side and an unidentified man standing in the background. The ward features iron bedsteads with mosquito nets draped over canopies at the head of the bed. The top section of the sash windows are fully open to the verandahs
Ingham is situated in the Herbert River district and is known as 'Australia's Sugar Bowl'. Ingham derives its name from William Bairstow Ingham, owner of the Ings plantation, who settled in the district in 1873. The town is positioned between a wilderness of parks, waterfalls and the waterways of the Hinchinbrook Channel, and is situated 110 km north of Townsville. Sugar-growing was established in the 1870s. The largest mills are the Macknade and the Victoria. Victoria Sugar Mill has the capacity to crush 4 million tonnes of cane. During the 1950s, sugar, timber-cutting and tin were responsible for much developmental work around Ingham. The port for Ingham is Lucinda Point at the mouth of the Herbert River.
