WELD HILL

Mt Paris Dam

 

 

The Cascade River below the Mt Paris Dam.  The dam was built in 1937 and was connected by an 11 Km water race with the Mt Paris Mine.  The dam has remained empty since 1970.  It is 250 metres long and up to 16 metres high.  It is just a few hundred metres off the Mt Paris Dam road about 8 kilometres from Weldborough.

 
 

 

Concrete and buttress wall - an imposing structure.

 

 
 

Nearby Maa Moon Chin Dam.  An excellent picnic area barely a kilometre from Weldborough.
