what is left is interesting. (well I think) Once a busy unique little seaside town with
coal mines and a standard gauge railway that carried coal to a large ocean jetty for
loading of coal ships. Now the mines and the railway have gone Catherine Hill Bay
has become a sleepy little town.

| A close up of whats left of the trestle bridge that once crossed the creek near the beach |
 |
| showing how close it is to the beach |
 |
| The jetty in which the coal ships where once loaded |
 |
| Where these gates are located is the start of the jetty that once had coal trains on it for unloading directly onto waiting ships |
 |
| Located south of the cemetery is the remnants of this water tank once used to fill steam locomotives of water |
 |
| The brick foundations where surprisingly in good condition |
 |
| The water tank itself has definitely seen better days |
Till next time
