Rare engraving of what Black Wattle Swamp looked like in the 1850’s.
The swamp was fed by Black Wattle Swamp Creek which rose in a swamp where Prince Alfred Park is today and passed the old brewery on Broadway, it was the brewery’s water supply and the reason for the plant being located there. The creek then followed the line of Blackfriars Street, entering Blackwattle Bay in a large swamp where the Sydney City Council Depot in William Henry Street now stands.
