3 unusual facts about Springbank Island


Springbank Island

Canberry Creek which ran through the property was renamed Sullivans Creek after William Sullivan (1829-1911).

Ringbarked years ago and neglected as a natural consequence, is now a dense mass of undergrowth of young trees.

Springbank included both the river flats of the Molonglo River and Black Mountain plus a sizeable portion of the area now occupied by the Australian National University (ANU).
