Roseberry, Tasmania

We left Queenstown March 2020 and headed up the highway to Wynyard on the North West Coast of Tasmania. Map below.
 
A house at Queenstown which would have once been a miners cottage.
Then a few photos of the main street in Roseberry, a mining town, not so much today.
The road photos  were taken in the vehicle as we moved along and gives idea of the terrain as we went along.  The road is narrow in places but it's beautiful.
 




 
The marker on the map is where Roseberry is, we continued north to where Somerset is then west to Wynyard.

      Some of those houses in Queenstown are really well kept, other not so much.

    Tienes razón. El camino es precioso. En algunos puntos aparece la niebla y le da un toque especial a la imagen.

    Besos

      Rather partial to fog, it intrigues me and give the scene a different feel.

    I suspect that the first cottage contained a bigger family than would seem possible today.
    Thank you (again) for taking us traveling with you.

      You are welcome.
      Probably a much larger family living there way back, there is the Catholic School and a Public School at Queenstown..

    The road does look a bit narrow and the weather not so good along this part of your drive, margaret, Still the road views are nice to see and the way I have also taken many photos.

      The road was narrow in places but on the whole it's a fairly good highway.
