From Mrs Nan Baker, 30 Chalmers Road, comes this pic of the Gardens footbridge over the Taruhem River, taken about 1908. It shows the centre sections which were opened to allow shipping to pass up the river to the old freezing works.

A new footbridge is being built down river to replace the original and is about due to be opened.
