- Description
Paper presented at the Australasian Engineering Heritage Conference (3rd: 2009 : Dunedin).
- Abstract
This paper briefly outlines the development of water hydraulic power systems and devices during the 19th century, and then describes a range of extant system elements from Australia and New Zealand. The significance of this early motive power technology is underlined by the many end-use applications that evolved, and further work in identifying, recording and, where practicable, conserving extant remnants is advocated.
