12.01.2022 Conference time again with lots of valuable speakers. This time in Gippsland. There have been lots of industry updates and wonderful new technologies presented. Regional conferences are great as we hear presentations on all sorts of things related to the local area. We heard from a company called Gippsland Jersey who are local owned and operated. If you find their products, please support them. They have done some amazing work for dairy farmers. Not only are they selling the milk and dairy products at a fair price for farmers, but they are tackling mental health issues too. They also provide support back to the farmers and their families which has been desperately needed in recent times. Check out their Facebook, Instagram and twitter pages.

06.01.2022 FALLS BRIDGE - MELBOURNE 1870s Falls Bridge, forerunner to today's Queens Bridge, was built in 1860 crossing over the Yarra River where a naturally formed rocky... ledge stood. It was this ledge, when at low tide separated the freshwater from the brackish saltwater. The combination of saltwater access and freshwater supply at this junction, and with higher land on the north side, determined the site for Melbourne's foundation and early settlement. In 1839, an attempt was made to raise the height of the saltwater barrier by applying stone, mud and mortar but the result didn't last long. Repeated attempts had similar results until men without work in the 1840s depression put in a stone wall that was able to last. This image of the Falls Bridge was taken from the north side of the Yarra River. It was an all wooden structure set on red gum piles and formed the continuation of Market Street, crossing the river to what became Queens Bridge Street on the southern side. The bridge was built by Huckson and Company for the sum of 3518 5s and served the rapidly growing community of Melbourne for just over 20 years: In the early 1880s, a decision was made to replace the bridge and remove the stone wall barrier. Up to this time it was an enormously active business thoroughfare, and the traffic was becoming so heavy that there were continual blocks at the southern approach by the tortuous and often boggy road to Emerald Hill (South Melbourne). Also there were plans to widen the river and the introduction cable trams through this area. A contract for the demolition of the bridge and the construction of a temporary bridge on its eastern side beside the rail bridge was given to a Mr. T. D. M'Larty for the sum of 3385. The Falls Bridge was removed in July of 1883, and with the removal of the stone wall barrier and all traces of the original rocky 'Falls' the way was clear for the construction of the new steel structure we see today. After a delay in finalising plans for the new Falls Bridge (renamed Queens Bridge) construction of the new bridge commenced in 1888. The chief contractor for its construction was David Munro, who also erected the nearby Princes Bridge, and the Sandridge Railway Bridge, both completed in 1888. Queens Bridge was officially opened by the Governor, Lord Hopetoun, on the 18th April 1890. An image of the temporary Falls Bridge and a current photo and an 1886 map showing the alignment of the original Falls Bridge in relation to the Queens Bridge and Sandridge Bridge are posted in the comments section.
