Afghan Wells are significant for their associations with camel transport.
Prior to the construction of serviceable roads, the Afghans and their pack camel teams provided an efficient and fast mode of transport across country in the north west, Kimberly and goldfields districts. There are a number of wells between Broome and Willie Creek, and around the Willie Creek area.
