Photograph[edit]

The illumination is deficient in the photograph of the former bank. Can a better one be found? Michael Hardy 21:26, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree the photo isn't the best, however it is one of only two I have; see commons:Tarnagulla, Victoria. My photography skills are not the greatest, especially in poor light. While Tarnagulla is not an isolated locality, it really isn't on the way to anywhere and I don't think I will be back there any time soon. Sorry. -- Mattinbgn/^talk 22:30, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nuggety Gully[edit]

Mattinbgn, is it written differently than Nuggety Gully Water Race and Chinese Camp? I didn't assume it's a typo, I googled it before and it seemed like there's a place in Australia written with single T. Uziel302 (talk) 20:36, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nuggety (with one "t") Gully Water Race and Chinese Camp is in far northern Queensland, around 2,800 kilometres (1,700 mi) away from Nuggetty (with two "t"'s) Gully in Victoria, near Tarnagulla. The spelling can be checked at the Victorian Register of Geographic Names website. Note - there are several Nuggetty Gullys in Victoria; it was a common name for intermittent watercourses during the Victorian gold rush. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 21:57, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
