COLONIAL SETTLEMENT The town of Parramatta was established in late 1788. It was a favourite ‘country get away’ for the colonial elites, including the early governors. DAVID LENNOX The Lennox Bridge’s architect was a pioneer in bridge building in Australia at the time, and the NSW Superintendent of Bridges. LENNOX BRIDGE Completed in 1839, the elegant, single-arch Lennox Bridge replaced two earlier wooden structures that had been washed away by floods.

The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).

Gustav II Adolf’s Vasa made it only 1300 meters before a gust of wind heeled it over so far that water ran in through the gunports and the ship sank before thousands of onlookers. Initial salvage attempts failed, but most of the guns were recovered in the 1660s. In 1956, the wreck was relocated, and after nearly five years of preparation, successfully raised. Excavation of the interior and the surrounding bottom produced over 40,000 objects revealing every aspect of life and death aboard a 17th-century warship. This lecture will present the history of the project, current research being carried out at the Vasa Museum, and discuss the place of Vasa in both the national consciousness of Sweden and the public perception of maritime archaeology.

  • Looking Inside Lennox Bridge, Parramatta, Australia
    Looking inside Lennox Bridge, Parramatta, Australia Ian Berger, Heritage Officer, Roads and Maritime Services, New South Wales, Australia David Greenfield, ICE Abstract Lennox Bridge in Parramatta is a masonry arch bridge built in stages from 1836 to 1838 to service the primary agricultural route into that town which was the seat of the Governor of the Colony of New South Wales. It was the third bridge built at the crossing after the previous two timber structures had been lost to floods. David Lennox, its bridge builder had previously worked on several of Thomas Telford’s major bridges before immigrating to Australia and his surviving works exhibit some of this technical skill. Major development works on this bridge in 2014 made it the focus of an archaeological excavation which gleaned valuable insights into early 19th century building practices that have not previously been published. These include the presence of a series of internal galleries within the masonry arch, a principle espoused by Telford, for the purposes of reducing weight on the arch and enabling future inspection. In addition a central wall located within the bridge appears to demonstrate the manner in which the bridge was built in two halves, enabling its more rapid availability to traffic. Furthermore, revealed within the bridge approaches was the stub of a masonry pier belonging to the previous timber bridge at the site which had been integrated into the construction. Presentation of these finds (which were only revealed as a process of destructive investigation) will focus on questions of technology transfer and best practice methods for masonry bridge construction as developed by Telford.
