Bells Parade, Latrobe
Bells Parade is situated at the Latrobe Inlet of the Mersey River.
Latrobe is situated on the Mersey River some 9km south of Devonport. Latrobe was the first convenient point where the Mersey River could be forded. Ferries came up the river to the site, now known as Bells Parade, where the town's docks were once located. Today this historic dockland has been turned into a pleasant picnic ground with lovely trees and maybe you just might find a Platypus or two.
After taking the photos and returning to the caravan park in Devonport I noticed I had my camera on the wrong setting, thus the darker photos. Fortunately I did take a few with my phone. which is the second photo.
Workmen returning from the other side - vehicles are not permitted to go over the bridge but of course the workmen are.
Was amused at the sign below but it's walk track and a seat above donated by a person who often took their dog for a walk in the Reserve.
