Shaw's Lake

Post by Stephen Whiteside » Sun Jun 24, 2018 5:51 pm

I came across this lake in my travels this afternoon, and thought it especially beautiful. It is an artificial lake, built in the 19th century as a water source for the gold workings on the Yankee Creek, near Blackwood in central Victoria. I took the photo standing on the dam wall.
