Cataract Dam - The Dam that Keele Built

Cataract Dam.
This is the dam that Keele built.
Poem by Banjo Paterson
This is the dam that Keele built.
This is the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
This is the Water and Sewer Brigade,
That measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
This is the Engineer by Trade --
Head of the Water and Sewer Brigade,
Who measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
These are the Calculations made
By the Eminent Engineer by Trade,
Head of the Water and Sewer Brigade,
Who measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
This is the scornful Mr Wade,
Who sneered at the Calculations made
By the Eminent Engineer by Trade,
Head of the Water and Sewer Brigade,
Who measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
This is the Minister quite dismayed
At the sight of the Scornful Mr Wade,
Who sneered at the Calculations made
By the Eminent Engineer by Trade,
Head of the Water and Sewer Brigade,
Who measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built;
This is the Sydneyite afraid
That a serious blunder will be made,
Because of the Minister, quite dismayed
At the sight of the Scornful Mr Wade,
Who sneered at the Calculations made
By the Eminent Engineer by Trade,
Head of the Water and Sewer Brigade,
Who measured the stream that brought the water to fill the dam that Keele built.

Love our local Dams, bit of a shame they are now closing off so much of the access we once had.

Loved it!
Those outlets are super interesting to see in action. The drone footage was great!
Thanks for sharing -Cheers 😁

First time in many years we have seen the outlet jets pumping, guess lots of rain run off does this 😉

[@mongreljack]

That was cool Deb, loved the drone footage!

It’s great location, I’ve alway been fascinated with our local Dams and their Egyptian inspired architecture, quiet fascinating 😁
