1938 MAP (PART 12) SWIMMING POOL WARRIMOO

1938 MAP (PART 12) SWIMMING POOL WARRIMOO

I must admit that I knew nothing about a swimming pool at Warrimoo when I started this blog, beyond what is shown below (from the 1938 map). Rather than me repeat the story, you can read it yourself here. It is basically about Arthur Rickard, real estate developer and entrepreneur.

As for the pool itself, whether it still exists or not, I don't know. If you do, please add your story in the comments section below.

Sir Arthur Rickard

1938 MAP (Part 8) FLORABELLA PASS WARRIMOO AND BLAXLAND

1938 MAP (Part 8) FLORABELLA PASS WARRIMOO AND BLAXLAND

Florabella Pass lies between Warrimoo and Blaxland in the lower Blue Mountains. The map shows its location clearly; however urban development since 1938 has been considerable so a modern street directory and walks guide is essential.

The name "Florabella" basically means "beautiful flowers".

The Pilgrim Inn at Blaxland was destroyed in a bush fire about 60 years ago
