Eco-Annandale 2010

October Eco-Artists' Walk- 10 October 2009 Walk

There was a light breeze and the rain abated for the third eco-annandale 2010 walk. The walk featured the Whites Creek Wildlife Corridor and Wetlands and along the way we admired a NSW Christmas Bush in a garden and the historic Aqueduct. There was also an impromptu visit to the Community Garden, a chat at Arthur's Rose Garden and a discussion at the Nissen Hut.

Though not an Acacia, it has been called Black Wattle since its stems were used to construct wattle-and-daub buildings in the early days of Sydney - Native Plants of the Sydney District

Annandale NSW was historically bounded by Rozelle Bay (Port Jackson/Sydney Harbour), Parramatta Road, Johnston's Creek and White's Creek. However, in 1995, the Annandale boundary was extended across Johnston's Creek to include the part of Camperdown, bounded by Booth Street, Mallet Street and Parramatta Road.
