Irrigation Scheme for Cumberland County Draws Attention
A large plan to irrigate Cumberland County from Richmond to Parramatta gains official interest. The proposal builds on the 1867 Royal Commission survey of eastern districts near Sydney to conserve streams and boost production, with the Birralong scheme seen as most practical. Projected cost around £2,800,000 could raise county output significantly, leveraging agricultural schools in Cumberland as essential support.
