Baiame's Ngunnhu, Fisheries
Museum
👍👍 I love this place, this Sacred indigenous place known as Baiame’s Ngunnhu by the locals; Baiame being the creator of the Ngunnhu, the fish traps. So much ancient history is here and one can feel it. It was a meeting point for eight tribes, a place of co-operation and celebration. Fish would swim ups...

Located inside the pylon (those 2 giant brown towers that are on each end of the bridge) closest to Circular Quay, this small museum has some photos and descriptio...

Remember When Grafton
Museum
👍👍 What a spectacularly special place of history of the bygone era. It bought back memories of growing up over my past 70 years. This place is special, as it was moved from Grafton to Eatonsville as memorial of Graftons past. Thankyou for the memories.
