Just a few kilometers from town we found this wonderful old shearing shed over 100 years old

Big Tree - Red River Gum - Moulamein

A short walk the river bank brought us to this giant red river gum @ 11 metres wide & is believed to be 

500 and 1000 years old

 

 

It certainly has survived many a river flooding over all those years

 

 

 

 

Moulamein - NSW

Oldest town in the Riverina

Out & about doing the tourist bit

Moulamein (surveyed in 1815).  

Old wharf, reminder of by-gone days when the town prospered as an inland port, when the river system was the most effective means of transport for local produce.

The old wharf at present is being restored & is located on the northern banks of the Edward river

 

Main street

 

 

 

Old court house was built in the late 1800's, where people were brought from places as far as Albury to be tried.  This building is a relic of the days when the town was a thriving centre in the Southern Riverina
