St Crispin's Well

St Crispin's Well
Previously walked on 18/9/19 and 26/9/18

Well, well...no well!

We noticed these rusting relics. A steam engine. This pipeline track follows the route of a tramway. The tramway was used in the construction of the pipeline and later for timber haulage.

Levert Rivulet (goes to Sandfly)

Snake Plains turnoff

The pipeline itself

Getting the first glimpses of Cathedral Rock

Looking across to Mountain River

and a view of Herringback (identified by Wayne) with its two towers.

We passed this turnoff which also goes to a well (dubbed "fools well").

Better views from this spot where the track to Cathedral Rock goes off to the left

This scree slope is a sign we are nearly there.

But then...
Apparently (according to Wellington Park) Taswater put in the track to the well with no maintenance plan. It is being looked into.

Just so you don't miss out entirely here are some photos from a previous visit. Crispin and Crispian were twins who were martyred c286. The Battle if Agincourt, Charge of the Light Brigade  and the Battle of Leyte Gulf all happened on 25th October, St Crispin's Day. He is the patron saint of cobblers, curriers, tanners and leatherworkers.

Des res?

Home from Home.

This discoloured water was flowing out of the hillside.

More evidence of the tramway
