Plan of Portions 203 to 257 in the Environs of Brisbane, Parish of Enoggera (1859)

Plan of Portions 203 to 257 in the Environs of Brisbane, 1859. (Queensland State Archives Item ID620656)

This map from 1859 is held by the Queensland State Archives (Item ID620656) and the State Library (Record 727379). It features excellent depictions of Western Creek, Langsville Creek and Toowong Creek, as well as the lagoon between Cribb Street and Park Road. I have featured it in previous posts and articles including Milton – Brisbane’s western frontier and The lost creeks rise again.
