DetailsThe centre of the tourist industry in Berowra was Berowra Creek in the area now known as Berowra Waters, but visitors arriving by train had a long walk to the creek which was their objective. Although many chose to walk to Berowra Creek, it was not long before a supporting industry in transporting people to and from the waterside developed. A road to the waterside had existed, in a basic form, since at least 1895, but in 1902 it was upgraded allowing carriages known as ‘sociables’ to carry people from the train station to the ‘Waters’. Later, a coach service was established, run by the Corrigan family. Of course, the road could also be used by tourists visiting by car, or in organised tour groups.CreatorBerowra Living History GroupKeywordsBerowra
