Near Berrima, NSW, Australia
Bridge over Black Bobs Creek, 12km south of Berrima. Designed by David Lennox as part of Thomas Mitchell's 'Great Southern Road' (later part of the Hume Highway), constructed 1835.
Originally comprising a timber span, the central span was replaced with another timber structure in 1860 (due to nearby flooding); and with a concrete span in 1896 - the first un-reinforced concrete arch bridge built in NSW.
