Three Women with a Girl at Britannia Falls, c. 1910

Blue Mountains City Library

Notes: names painted on the rock may include - Jessie Thames, Tilly Sharpe, Stewart Bins. There also appears to be a date of Feb 1909 and the clothing looks pre-war.

Britannia Falls was named by the Wentworth Falls Trustees in 1898 after Margaret Britannia (Brit) Young, nee Murray, daughter of Captain James Somerville Murray and Elizabeth Lilla Murray. James Murray was one of the first Europeans to explore the Valley in 1886.
