Hiawatha - A Frame Bridge

Built in 1933, the Hiawatha "A frame" bridge is scientifically, historically and aesthetically significant at State level. It is the only surviving Victorian (and probably, Australian) example of its structural type, and was produced to a standard design by Victoria's Country Roads Board in the economically-depressed years of the 1930s. This is the last surviving example of an innovative type of Victorian timber bridge, specifically designed for rural Gippsland sites.
