White's Creek Catchment in the Rain

-
Checked out White's Creek Catchment in the rain with a few long time residents including an 82 year old who was born at the Private Hospital where the Leichhardt Bolo is and moved to where she lives now when she was 1. She has seen a few changes and people come and go.    Ferris Lane looked fabulous!    The new lintel in Ferris Street seemed to be working well - residents have worked with council to make this happen along with cleaning out nearby drains and gutters.   Evan Jones Playground had a tree down. And a few other trees need mulching.     Water was flowing out of the grate where Styles Street crosses White's Creek and different drivers approached the puddle. The 150 year old salt glazed pipe was still working too!    Photos and Videos at https://www.instagram.com/p/CMvolNkD2Pb/

Salt Glazed earthenware sewer pipes Wells St Annandale. Salt Glazed earthenware pipes were constructed to exacting standards. They were used to transport storm water and sewerage from the 1890s. The potteries in Camperdown and Marrickville produced the pipes to exacting standards from local clay, timber and water. After over 100 years of services these pipes are being discarded in Wells Street Annandale - to most likely be replaced with plastic pipes.
