A hike beyond the park

I left Fellmonger Park and followed Hilliards Creek under a bridge and reached a modified weir. Steps had been installed to allow fish to come up the stream and pass between the rocks.

Fellmonger Park

Once this was the location of wool washers who used Hilliards Creek to scour wool after it was shorn from sheep. Fenced in were the remains of the buildings where scouring took place, but I wasn’t here for a history lesson, but a hike.
