07.01.2022 Occupations in the Early Days of Dubbo TRANSPORTING THE WOOL CLIP The Australian wool trade was established in 1807 when the very first bales of wool were taken... to England. The Reverend Samuel Marsden, returning home to his native Yorkshire, took with him 165 bales of wool from his own sheep breeding and growing endeavours. He took the wool to William Thompson of Rawdon, Yorkshire, where it was well received and made into cloth from which a suit was cut for Marsden. Interest for Australian wool began to increase and the mills in the north of England demanded more and more of the fine Australian Merino wool. This was brought about by the rapid expansion of textiles due to changing fashions. London was the main international wool market in the 19th century and consignments of wool were shipped to England where the wool brokers sold the bales at auction. By the mid 1890s more Australian wool was being sold on the Continental European markets than in England. How did wool growers from Dubbo get their wool to London in the early days? It was not at all practical to take a fully loaded wagon over the Blue Mountains and onto Sydney for shipping. There was a better and faster way. Wool wagons were loaded with bales in Dubbo and taken overland to Bourke. Here the bales were transferred to a barge, and pulled by a paddle steamer, made their way down the Darling River to Wentworth where the Murray River meets the Darling. From here the wool barge would travel along the Murray to Mannum and then onto Lake Alexandrina in South Australia. Here the clip would be loaded onto a sailing ship for the journey to London, England. This was a far faster route than taking the clip overland to Sydney and thence by ship to London. Wool growers from Dubbo and in fact all of Australia, could always be assured of a top price for their wool on the English and European markets. Photos Macquarie Street Dubbo 1873.
