Convict Trail Project

From the Convict Trail website - http://greatnorthroad.com.au/the-project

“The Convict Trail Project has been in existence since the early 1990’s. It was initiated by the Bucketty and Wollombi communities (population 150 and 300 respectively) because of their concern about the degradation which was occurring to relics of the convict built Great North Road in their areas. The degradation resulted from a combination of neglect, vandalism, lack of awareness of the significance of the relics, and a lack of an overall management or conservation plan.” See website for more information.
