Pumphreys Old Bridge

Pumphreys Old Bridge, constructed in 1905, is a traditional timber road bridge spanning the Hotham River in Pumphreys Bridge, Western Australia. Built to accommodate increasing settler traffic, the bridge features sets of three poles buried into the ground, connected at the top with transitional beams, supporting secondary timber beams and planks. Each set of poles is diagonally braced, and the bridge is finished on both sides with a timber balustrade with a painted top rail and intermediate rail. The bridge holds historic value as a reminder of the area's development in the early 20th century.
