Digging up old miners huts at Tarnagulla

[tinpan]

Hi all,Spent most of this week-end at an old goldmining town of Tarnagulla.Very cold and quite wet for spring and this has restricted me from going onto the gold feilds.Most roads are clay and have turned into a muddy swamp.So i did a bit of hunting around area where the old town use to stand.Much of the old town was pulled down during the 1940's.The end of gold mining ment the end of the town.FEW NICE RELICS FOUND BUT NO GOLD. Here a few pics of finds and the old town and miners [circa] 1890's, followed by site pics and old mines.
